Investing in World-class Real Estate can qualify as the investment for the Citizenship Program

Every foreign investor and their families qualify for St Lucia citizenship under the real estate investment scheme. This however requires a minimum purchase of USD 300,000 approved property in St Lucia within the real estate class of Hotels, Resorts, and Luxury homes in Saint Lucia.  Moreover, if you intend to buy property in Saint Lucia, you will have to bear the cost of additional fees such as property registration fee, citizenship processing fee, due diligence fee etc.

The Saint Lucia Investment Program goes the extra mile to make the real estate process easier for applicants. The Program carefully selects Real Estate Projects that meet the criteria as investment vehicle for all citizenship applicants. The real estate project must be:

  • A high-end branded hotel or resort
  • A high-end boutique property
  • Any other project that the Minister considers necessary based on the recommendation of the Saint Lucia Citizenship by Investment Board and following due consultation with the Cabinet.

Applicants can then choose from any of the selected options.
