Can I apply to obtain economic citizenship in St. Kitts?

Yes. Under St. Kitts law, a non-citizen may be eligible for economic citizenship following investment in an “approved investment project,” subject to certain due diligence and security requirements and upon payment of applicable registration fees. Christophe Harbour has been designated as an approved investment project.

Obtaining economic citizenship may make it easier to conduct business on island, but is not needed to purchase property at Christophe Harbour. If you are interested in obtaining economic citizenship, a St. Kitts lawyer can help you process your application.
