Citizenship granted through purchase of at least USD 300,000 in a government-approved real estate development, held for 5 years.
Saint Lucia's Citizenship by Investment Programme, established by the Citizenship by Investment Act No. 14 of 2015, grants full citizenship to investors who purchase a deeded interest in a government-approved real estate development. The route channels private capital into vetted luxury hotels, resorts and boutique properties under the Citizenship by Investment Unit.
Applicants invest at least US$300,000 in an approved project, hold the property for five years, and pay a US$30,000 administration fee plus US$8,000 due diligence and US$2,000 processing fees. Processing takes approximately 90 days from acceptance; applicants must be 18+, pass strict due diligence, and apply through a licensed Authorised Agent.
This visa is ideal for high-net-worth investors seeking a tangible asset and lifetime citizenship for the whole family, with no residency obligation, who can absorb the 5-year holding period and rigorous source-of-funds checks.
