Caribbean citizenship: programme structure and what to check
Dominica, St Kitts & Nevis, Antigua & Barbuda, Grenada and St Lucia form the well-known Caribbean CBI group: they differ in investment structure, fees, processing times and presence requirements. Minimum amounts vary with policy and family size.
Criteria to compare
- Minimum investment, government fees and due diligence costs.
- The strength of each passport in the Passport Index.
- Tax rules depend on residence status and personal circumstances, not on citizenship alone.
Notes
- Passport strength differs between the islands — check each one specifically.
- Due diligence is rigorous; applications must document the source of funds transparently.
