St Kitts and Nevis grants citizenship to qualifying investors. This page explains how the route works for Filipino nationals.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
St Kitts and Nevis citizenship by investment is open to applicants of many nationalities, including Filipino nationals, subject to due diligence. Applicants must be adults and must pass the background checks set by the Citizenship by Investment Unit.
The Philippines permits dual citizenship, and St Kitts and Nevis places no general bar on holding another nationality, so a Filipino applicant can usually keep Philippine citizenship. Confirm your own position before acting.
The main routes are a contribution to the Sustainable Island State Contribution and an approved real estate investment. The contribution route is the most direct for many applicants.
Every applicant goes through due diligence, and the main applicant attends an interview arranged by the Unit. The Unit can refuse an applicant who is judged a security or reputational risk, or who was refused a visa by a country with which St Kitts and Nevis has a visa waiver.
St Kitts and Nevis publishes its process through the Citizenship by Investment Unit. Confirm the current expected timeline with the Unit rather than relying on intermediary figures.
The widely cited contribution figures are shown below. Verify every number with the official authority before budgeting, since dependant costs and fees apply on top.
| Item | Indicative amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Sustainable Island State Contribution, main applicant or family up to four | From USD 250,000 | Set by the Citizenship by Investment Unit |
| Additional dependant under 18 | From USD 25,000 each | Confirm the current figure with the official authority |
| Additional dependant 18 or over | From USD 50,000 each | Confirm the current figure with the official authority |
| Due diligence and processing fees | Confirm the current figure with the official authority | Apply on top of the contribution |
