About the Programme
The Newest of the Five
Saint Lucia learned from its neighbours and offers every route they do, and one they do not: government bonds, held to term and returned in full, for an applicant who wants a passport without giving the capital away. The contribution route is the cheapest; the real-estate route buys into approved developments on an island whose tourism is its largest industry.
Processing is the region’s longest, at six to twelve months, and every adult applicant is interviewed. In return: a passport with visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to around 147 destinations, no residence requirement, no tax on income earned abroad, and one of the Caribbean’s most photographed coastlines to hold a share of.
