The COVID-19 pandemic has taken the world by storm. Many are left feeling discouraged and uncertain about the future and the future of their country of origin. So much so that it’s left some investors no choice but to seek out second citizenship and passport elsewhere.
One country that has piqued investors’ interest is St. Kitts & Nevis. Their Citizenship by Investment program, which started in 1984, is an attractive and affordable alternative for those who are not willing to invest in European Citizenship and is regarded as excellent value for money, with numerous passport benefits.
Confirming the advantages of second citizenship and passport, CEO of Savory & Partners, Jeremy Savory says, “We’ve had a lot of European, Western clients that want to be strategic with their tax planning and passing on inheritances. We also have Middle Eastern clients facing challenges, where they don’t feel like they can travel freely into the Schengen zone in Europe, or to the UK or the US. Citizenship by Investment gives them a plan B.”

**LIMITED TIME OFFER** As of July 2020, active immediately, St. Kitts & Nevis has reduced the price of their family contribution by $45,000. What was previously $195,000 for a family of 4 will now cost $150,000. However, this special price is only valid until 15 January 2021. For a single applicant, the non-refundable minimum contribution remains at $150,000.
St. Kitts & Nevis Citizenship Investment Unit Chief Executive, Les Khan, says about the price reduction, “In today’s uncertain world, it is only right that individuals and families want the ability to travel the globe as flexibly and confidently as possible. Once travel restrictions are lifted, the St Kitts & Nevis passport will continue to enable our citizens to travel visa-free to more countries in the world than any other program in the Caribbean and the vast majority of passports in the world,” explains Les.
