Saint Lucia CBI - Enterprise Project

Overview

The enterprise-project option of the Saint Lucia Citizenship by Investment Programme lets you qualify by making a substantial investment in a government-approved enterprise project, either as a sole investor or as part of a joint investment in a larger approved venture. Approved projects must create local jobs, with minimum job-creation conditions attached. This is the highest-value of the Saint Lucia options and suits investors who want their capital in an operating business that benefits the local economy. Thresholds, job conditions and approved projects are set by the government and change - confirm the current details on the official CIU page.
