The Citizenship by Investment Unit recently hosted its Annual Authorised Agent Meeting on Wednesday, May 18th, 2022.
The gathering brought together the programme’s partner agents who are all locally based in Saint Lucia. Authorised Agents are the only and main point of contact between an applicant and the Citizenship Unit. They assist in the processing of the citizenship application.
The Annual meeting successfully highlighted the way forward for the Citizenship by Investment Programme – “Beyond the Passport” and fostered greater synergies between the local Agents and the Unit on the enhancement of process efficiency.
CIP Saint Lucia and by extension, the Government and people of Saint Lucia have actioned a call to all global citizens. Citizens who have been granted through the citizenship by investment programme (CIP) to visit, vacation, invest, build and grow with the island.
Citizenship via investment allows a person to acquire citizenship of a country, by making an investment in the country (Saint Lucia). Generally, this investment is referred to as a ‘qualifying investment option.’ This investment ultimately impacts the economic development of the island.
Otherwise, Saint Lucia allows a person to acquire citizenship by birth, through naturalization or marriage.
CIP Saint Lucia continues to be a catalyst for strategic economic diversification and growth. We are committed to our core values of transparency, good governance, and rigorous due diligence.
