Saint Lucia is focused on Citizenship by Investment, with up to four routes: the National Economic Fund, approved real estate, an enterprise project, and, when offered, a government bond.
Saint Lucia's principal route to status is its Citizenship by Investment (CBI) programme, administered by the CIP Unit and the newest among the Caribbean options. The most popular route is a non-refundable contribution to the National Economic Fund (NEF). Investors can also buy approved real estate, which must be held for a minimum period before resale.
A third route is an approved enterprise (business) project that creates local jobs, suited to entrepreneurs who want their capital in a venture. At times Saint Lucia also offers a government bond option: a non-interest-bearing bond held for a set period, though its availability and terms vary.
All routes require passing due diligence and applying through an authorised agent, and none carries a residence requirement. Because the bond option comes and goes, confirm its current status and all minimums with the CIP Unit. ACME can assess which route fits your goals and budget.
