Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| E-visa for Saint Kitts and NevisYou need to get this visa approved before you fly – it's not available at the border.

Passport validity counts from entry date
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you arrive in Saint Kitts and Nevis, not from your departure date. Double-check before you fly.
Return ticket is mandatory
Immigration officers will ask to see a confirmed return or onward ticket. If you don't have one, you may be denied entry. Keep a copy on your phone or printed.
