The government has indicated a launch around mid-2026. That timing is a stated intention rather than a confirmed date, and it may move. No applications are open at present. Mirabello registers early interest now and will notify you the moment the official framework, routes and dates are published, so you can act without delay.

No. As of now the programme has been announced but is not operational, and no applications can be submitted. Anyone suggesting you can apply today would be premature. We recommend using this period for careful planning and fit assessment, and we will advise you precisely once official terms are confirmed and the programme genuinely opens.

Early reporting suggests active investment from approximately USD 500,000, channelled through the ring-fenced national fund (SVGIF). This figure is provisional and unconfirmed. Government fees, due diligence costs and family pricing have not been published. Treat any number you see today as indicative only, subject to official confirmation at launch.

Simply arrange a confidential consultation through our contact page. We record your interest, assess whether the announced programme is a genuine fit for your circumstances, and keep you informed as details are confirmed. There is no commitment, and no application is possible until the programme launches. Our role now is to prepare you to move quickly and correctly.

The St Vincent passport currently offers strong mobility, with reporting indicating roughly 150 or more visa-free and visa-on-arrival destinations, including the Schengen Area, the United Kingdom, Singapore and China. The United States is not visa-free. Future access could be affected by wider pressure on Caribbean CBI, which is a genuine risk worth weighing.

Established programmes such as St Kitts, Antigua, Dominica, Grenada and St Lucia are operational, with track records and prices from around USD 200,000 to 250,000 and no residency requirement. St Vincent, as announced, would carry a mandatory residency element and potentially higher pricing, offset by a transparent fund and strong mobility. Our CBI guide compares open options directly.

A mandatory physical residency requirement has been announced, which would be a notable departure from most Caribbean CBI programmes. It is intended to establish a genuine link that satisfies international regulators. The exact duration and conditions have not been specified. For investors seeking a purely transactional route with no residency, this is an important consideration.

Yes. The programme is at an early, pre-launch stage, and investment amounts, routes, fees, residency conditions and timelines are all provisional. Reported figures, including the approximate USD 500,000 minimum, could be revised when the legal framework is finalised. This is precisely why we advise planning rather than commitment until the government publishes confirmed terms.

The government has described it as a critical economic pillar and a sovereign capital mobilisation strategy, with proceeds ring-fenced in the SVGIF for productive investment, social infrastructure and fiscal resilience. The stated emphasis is on active investment and national development rather than revenue at all costs. Independent scrutiny continues, and implementation remains to be proven.

It may prove attractive for its transparency and mobility, but it would launch amid genuine headwinds, including US visa measures affecting some Caribbean CBI holders and EU pressure on the sector. We will not overstate the case. An honest assessment of your goals, timeline and risk tolerance, set against established alternatives, is the sensible starting point, and we are glad to provide one.
