Requirement and Eligibility
The St. Vincent & Grenadines Passport — Caribbean Prestige, Global Reach
The St. Vincent & Grenadines passport provides visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to over 150 countries and territories — including the full Schengen Area (26 European countries), the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Singapore, and the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). As a Commonwealth nation and OECS member, Vincentian passport holders enjoy extensive multilateral travel privileges forged over decades of diplomatic engagement.
The programme was announced in December 2025 by Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves, who described CBI as a "critical economic pillar" for the nation's development strategy. As an OECS and ECCIRA-adjacent jurisdiction, the programme is expected to adopt the region's established due diligence and governance standards.

Country taxes
St. Vincent & Grenadines Tax Overview for CBI Investors
St. Vincent & Grenadines is a highly tax-efficient jurisdiction for CBI investors. The country imposes no personal income tax, no capital gains tax, no inheritance tax, and no wealth tax — making it one of the most favourable Caribbean tax environments available.
| Tax Type | Rate | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Personal Income Tax | None | SVG does not impose personal income tax on individuals. [VERIFY: confirm no recent legislative changes] |
| Capital Gains Tax | None | No capital gains tax applicable. |
| Inheritance / Estate Tax | None | No inheritance or estate tax. |
| Wealth Tax | None | No annual wealth tax. |
| Corporate Tax | 30% | Applies to SVG-registered companies. Foreign entities without SVG business operations: not applicable. |
| VAT | 16% | Standard VAT on goods and services in SVG. [VERIFY current rate] |
Tax residency consideration: SVG citizenship alone does not create tax obligations in SVG. Tax residency requires physical presence and establishing domicile in the country. Most CBI investors holding SVG citizenship whilst resident elsewhere will have no SVG tax obligations. Your home country's tax authorities may, however, tax your worldwide income regardless of citizenship. Professional international tax advice is essential.

Country dual citizenship
Dual Citizenship — St. Vincent & Grenadines
St. Vincent & Grenadines permits dual and multiple citizenship. Investors acquiring SVG citizenship by investment retain all existing passports and nationalities in full — no renunciation is required.
- Existing passports and citizenships are fully preserved upon SVG naturalisation
- SVG citizenship is permanent — no ongoing investment or residency obligation post-issuance
- Children born to SVG citizens after naturalisation acquire Vincentian citizenship by descent automatically
- Multiple passport holders can use whichever document is most advantageous for each destination
SVG as Part of a Multi-Passport Strategy
With Schengen, UK, and CARICOM access, a Vincentian passport complements Asian and African passports for investors seeking a Caribbean-based mobility booster. The programme's OECS lineage and established regional framework make it a credible addition to any multi-passport portfolio.
