Government of St. Kitts and Nevis
Citizenship-by-Investment Unit (CIU)

To qualify for citizenship of St. Kitts and Nevis under the SIDF Option, the Government requires a contribution to the St. Kitts and Nevis Sugar Industry Diversification Foundation, a public charity audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers. Under this option, there are four different categories:

1. Single applicant: a non-refundable contribution of US$ 200,000 is required
2. Applicant with up to three dependants (i.e. one spouse and two children below the age of 18): a non-refundable contribution of US$ 250,000 is required
3. Applicant with up to five dependants (i.e. one spouse and four children): a nonrefundable contribution of US$ 300,000 is required
4. Applicant with six and more dependants: a non-refundable contribution of US$ 400,000 is required

In each of these categories, the above amounts include all government and due diligence fees. In case of unmarried dependent children who are older than 18 but younger than 25, they can also be included in the same application provided an additional fee of US$ 35,000 is paid to the Government.

Further information about the SIDF and this option may be obtained from the official website of the Sugar Industry Diversification Foundation at www.sidf.org.
