Frequently asked questions

Yes. Saint Lucia’s Citizenship by Investment Act allows revocation for fraud, a criminal conviction, or an act that the Minister considers capable of bringing the country into disrepute. The conviction provision does not specify a minimum sentence, and the disrepute provision does not require a conviction. The Minister must provide written grounds for revocation. Affected citizens have a right to appeal to the High Court, with notice of appeal required within 30 working days after the revocation order is served.

Generally, yes. Under section 101 of the Constitution, a citizen who acquired citizenship through investment can transmit it to a child subsequently born abroad. That child, if a citizen solely by descent, cannot automatically transmit citizenship to another foreign-born generation. A dependent who receives their own citizenship grant through the investment application is in a different position and can generally transmit citizenship to their own later-born children abroad.

No, you can obtain citizenship online from anywhere in the world.

Saint Lucia has restricted persons born in Iran, Russia, and Belarus from applying for citizenship by investment.
