Give up (renounce) St. Kitts & Nevis citizenship or nationality

​

Overview

 

You can apply to give up (renounce) your St. Kitts & Nevis citizenship or status. If accepted, you’ll get a ‘declaration of renunciation’ that you can use to show that you’re no longer a St. Kitts & Nevis national.

You might do this, for example, if you want to become a citizen of another country that does not allow dual citizenship.

Your right to live in the St. Kitts & Nevis will be affected if you give up citizenship.

• you’re going to get another citizenship or nationality after giving up your St. Kitts & Nevis citizenship or status
