Residency

Saint Kitts and Nevis routes:

  • Citizenship by Investment (CBI) via the Sustainable Growth Fund
  • CBI via approved real-estate investment
  • Standard work / family routes

Citizenship outcomes remain at the discretion of the Citizenship by Investment Unit.

Company setup

Nevis IBCs and LLCs are commonly used in international structures. Substance, beneficial ownership disclosure, and AML standards have tightened materially.

Banking

Domestic and offshore banking options exist but have become more selective on KYC and source of funds. Bordercase coordinates banking pack preparation and partner introductions.

Family

CBI applications can include qualifying dependants - spouse, children, and in some cases parents - under specific conditions.

Risks

Risks Bordercase watches for in Saint Kitts:

  • Programme parameters change
  • Due diligence has tightened materially
  • Rejection rates have risen for incomplete or unclear source-of-funds presentations
  • Visa-revocation and reputational risks if information is misrepresented
Documents

Typical CBI documents:

  • Passport
  • Due diligence questionnaires
  • Source-of-funds evidence (extensive)
  • Employment / business documentation
  • Family certificates with apostille and certified translation
  • Police clearance certificates for all countries of residence in the prior 10 years

Country pages stay the authoritative source. This view is a side-by-side; nothing here promises a particular outcome.
