Saint Lucia CBI - Approved Real Estate
Citizenship By Investment
For people who would rather own an asset than donate: you buy into a government-approved property development in Saint Lucia and, in return, you and your family can apply for citizenship.
Saint Lucia CBI - Enterprise Project
Citizenship By Investment
For investors who want citizenship of Saint Lucia by backing an approved enterprise project that creates local jobs - either alone or jointly with other approved applicants in a larger venture.
Saint Lucia CBI - Government Bonds
Citizenship By Investment
For people who want citizenship of Saint Lucia by buying government bonds that they hold for a fixed period - an option where the capital is intended to be returned at the end, unlike a donation.
Saint Lucia CBI - National Economic Fund
Citizenship By Investment
For people who want citizenship of Saint Lucia by making a one-time, non-refundable contribution to a national fund, rather than buying property or bonds. This is Saint Lucia's main donation route.
Saint Lucia Permanent Residence
General residence
For people who want to settle long-term in Saint Lucia through the ordinary residence rules - typically after several years of continuous residence - rather than through investment.
Saint Lucia Work Permit
Sponsored work
For people who have a job offer in Saint Lucia. Non-CARICOM nationals need a work permit from the Ministry of Labour before starting paid work; it is separate from citizenship by investment.
