In today’s era of flexible work and global mobility, professionals are looking beyond borders for lifestyle and opportunity. The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis — a twin-island nation known for its stunning beaches, stable economy, and modern infrastructure — offers an exceptional balance of Caribbean tranquility and professional potential.
Residency in St. Kitts and Nevis allows you to work remotely or locally, enjoy year-round sunshine, and live within a secure and welcoming community. For digital professionals, entrepreneurs, and families alike, it’s an opportunity to redefine success while embracing the Caribbean lifestyle.
There are three main pathways to residency:
Ideal for individuals who own or rent property but do not intend to work locally. This option suits retirees, part-time residents, and those testing the waters of Caribbean living.
Designed for those who wish to live and work in the Federation, Annual Residency provides greater flexibility and the ability to engage in business activities.
Perfect for long-term residents and property owners who have held qualifying real estate for at least seven years. Permanent Residency offers lasting stability, allowing you to fully integrate into island life.
Each option provides a legal framework for living and thriving in St. Kitts and Nevis — whether your focus is lifestyle, work, or investment.
Applicants are required to submit specific documentation, including proof of income or ownership, background checks, and medical results. All forms must be original or notarized, and translated if not in English.
At Nevis Style Realty (NSR), we do not process residency applications directly. Instead, we collaborate with trusted professional service providers who specialize in preparing and submitting residency applications to the appropriate authorities in St. Kitts and Nevis.
What we do offer is comprehensive property support — helping you:
Explore our property listings or discover luxury villa rentals for an extended stay while you prepare your application.
St. Kitts and Nevis also offers a long-term path to citizenship. Individuals who maintain Temporary, Annual, or Permanent Residency — as well as valid work permits — for a continuous period of 14 years may apply for citizenship. This pathway offers a gradual, natural integration into island life and the nation’s community.
For those seeking faster access to citizenship, the Citizenship by Investment (CBI) program remains a viable alternative, and NSR can connect clients with authorized agents to explore that route.
