Ciudadanía por Inversión de San Cristóbal y Nieves Desde Emiratos Árabes Unidos
Many UAE residents of other nationalities look at St Kitts and Nevis citizenship for easier travel. What is different from the UAE: you can apply while living in the UAE, documents and police certificates come from both the UAE and your country of nationality, UAE citizens face their own nationality restrictions, and some nationalities are not accepted.
