Post Citizenship Additions

 

St Kitts and Nevis citizenship is hereditary. This makes it possible for family members such as spouse, child and siblings to be added later at any time after the main applicant obtained citizenship. This process is subjected to additional fees.

 

Government Fees for Post-citizenship Addition Applications

 

 

From January 2023 onwards, for non-accelerated post-citizenship addition applications after the approval of the main applicant’s CBI application, the government fees payable will be adjusted as follows:
