Forty years of operation is the programme’s real asset. Border officials, banks and other governments know the St. Kitts & Nevis passport, which is why it travels furthest of the five — around 155 destinations without a visa, the Schengen Area and the United Kingdom among them. The routes are a contribution to the Sustainable Island State fund, or an approved property — a share in a resort development, or a private home at a higher threshold — held for the required term.

The 2023 reforms raised thresholds and introduced interviews and stricter due diligence across the federation, and the programme is the more credible for it. No residence or visit is required, there is no tax on worldwide income, and the two islands — St. Kitts with its estates and Christophe Harbour, Nevis with its plantation inns — are among the region’s most established addresses.
