How long does the Saint Lucia bond route take and is there a residency requirement?

Like the other Saint Lucia routes, the government bond option does not require you to reside in or even visit the country at any point. The whole process is handled remotely through a government-licensed agent.

A complete and clean application is generally processed in around 90 days. Once approved and the bond is purchased, citizenship is granted and is permanent, subject to holding the bonds for the required five years and to the accuracy of the information provided at application.
