SAINT LUCIA
AT A GLANCE
Saint Lucia is a country located in the Caribbean
and forms part of the Lesser Antilles. It is a
parliamentary democracy with Queen Elizabeth II
as its head of state. Today, Saint Lucia is a
full member in the Commonwealth of Nation
(British Commonwealth), United Nations, and the
Caribbean Community.
Area 616KM2 Capital City Castries Population
178,000 People Official Language English
Currency Eastern Caribbean Dollar (XCD) Key
Economy Sectors Tourism, Agriculture Government
Type Parliamentary democracy under
constitutional monarchy
Due to its strategic location and abundance of
natural resources, Saint Lucia was a target for
French and British settlers who frequently
battled over rule of the island until Saint Lucia
finally gained its independence in 1979. Saint
Lucian culture is very rich with influences of
Carib Indian, African, English, and French
heritage.
Saint Lucia is blessed with natural beauty due
to the countrys spectacular setting and
breathtaking nature. The result is a robust
tourism industry that attracts approximately
350,000 visitors each year. A major reason
contributing to the growth of Saint Lucias
tourism industry is the countrys international
airport which is served by regular international
flights from the USA, Canada, and Europe.

Saint Lucias Citizenship by Investment Program

parliamentary assent to Act No. 14 of 2015 on the
24th of August, 2015.
Regulations of the citizenship program are cited
in statutory instrument no. 89 of 2015 with
subsequent amendments being introduced in
statutory instrument no. 1 of 2017. The act
allows the government of Saint Lucia to grant
citizenship to persons who qualify under
criteria set by parliamentary decision.
Citizenship is granted to qualified applicants
within 4 to 5 months with no residency
requirements. Once the applicant is granted
citizenship, he/she becomes a citizen for life.
