As for the accepted payment methods, travellers can pay with a debit or credit card. Once your visa application is approved, you will receive it in the email address you have provided in your application. Kindly ensure you print out a copy of your eVisa so you can present it to the immigration officer when you arrive in Saint Kitts and Nevis.
Please note:
- Travellers coming from countries that normally need a visa to visit the country are exempt from the visa requirements if their stay does not exceed 24 hours.
- It is strongly advised to apply for your eVisa or visa at least one month in advance, or even better two months before you travel to Saint Kitts and Nevis, as processing times vary.
- To have your eVisa issued, you will need to send your actual passport (not a copy) over to the agency that will get it done for you. As soon as your application is approved, your passport will be stamped and your Saint Kitts and Nevis visa will become one with your passport. This is why it is paramount to send your original passport.
- Given how significant a travel document your passport is, we strongly suggest you send your passport (and your visa application) in a secure way. A great option is certified Mail, as well as a traceable courier, such as Express Mail, UPS, or FedEx.
