Citizenship by Investment
Saint Lucia offers four citizenship-by-investment routes — the National Economic Fund from USD 240,000, the USD 300,000 National Action Bond, approved real estate from USD 300,000 and enterprise projects — with the broadest dependant definition of the five Eastern Caribbean programmes.
About Saint Luciaنبذة
Saint Lucia's Citizenship by Investment Programme offers four routes: a non-refundable National Economic Fund contribution of USD 240,000 for an applicant alone or with up to three qualifying dependants; a USD 300,000 National Action Bond, non-interest-bearing and held for five years, plus a USD 50,000 administration fee; approved real estate from USD 300,000 plus administrative fees; or an approved enterprise project.
