The Investment Route
Three Doors, One Outcome
Saint Lucia's spread of routes is the widest in the region. Which one suits you depends almost entirely on whether you want your capital back.
01
National Economic Fund
A direct contribution to Saint Lucia's national economic fund. Nothing to manage afterwards, and usually the quickest path from application to passport.
- Single applicant or family pricing
- No property to maintain or resell
- Source-of-funds documentation prepared
- Typically the fastest route
02
Government Bond
A non-interest-bearing government bond, held for five years and returned in full at maturity. Higher upfront, but the lowest true lifetime cost of any Caribbean route.
- Purchased through an approved agent
- Capital returned in full at maturity
- No property or rental exposure
- The lowest net cost in the region
03
Approved Real Estate
Investment into a government-approved development, held for five years, with resale permitted afterwards to another qualifying applicant.
- Selected from an approved developer list
- Title or share registered in your name
- Resale permitted after the holding period
- Potential rental yield during the hold
Why Ozmark
Counsel, Not Salesmanship
The bond route is the most misunderstood product in the Caribbean. Handled correctly it is the cheapest passport in the region; handled poorly it is a five-year headache.
-
Straight Talk on the Bond Route
The bond is non-interest-bearing. You get your capital back, not a return on it. We show you the true net cost against the donation route in writing, before you decide.
-
Licensed & Government-Approved
We file only through authorised agents and approved developments. If a project can't be filed cleanly, we tell you before you commit a rupee — not after.
-
Transparent Case Tracking
Submitted, in review, approved — you see every milestone of your file in plain language, and you hear about a query from us before you hear about it from anyone else.
-
Confidential by Default
Your file touches the smallest possible number of hands. No case is discussed, listed or used as a reference without your written permission.
-
Support After Approval
Passport collection, travel planning and renewal reminders — and a Lahore office your family can still walk into years later.

In Their Words
Families Who Trusted the Process
Confidentiality mattered most to us. Our file never touched an unnecessary hand, and the bond route means our capital comes back in full later.
They costed the bond against the donation for us in writing. The bond won on a ten-year view, and they showed us the maths.
Four months, start to passport. The only surprise was that there were no surprises.
Before You Ask
Questions, Answered Plainly
Is the first consultation really confidential?
Yes — a private sitting with a senior counsellor, in person in Lahore or over a call. Nothing about your case is shared or discussed outside your file, whether or not you engage us.
Does the government bond pay interest?
No. It is a non-interest-bearing bond. You get your capital back in full at the end of the five-year holding period, but you earn nothing on it. The saving comes from not making a non-refundable donation, not from a return.
Can my spouse, children and parents be included?
Yes. Spouse, dependent children, parents and, in some cases, siblings can be added, each with their own government fee. We map the full family cost before you commit.
What happens if my application is queried?
We respond to the Citizenship by Investment Unit directly and promptly. A query is usually a documentation gap rather than a rejection. We stay engaged with your file until the passport is issued, not just until the application is filed.
Are there tax implications?
Citizenship itself doesn't automatically create a new tax obligation, but your personal situation might. We aren't tax advisors, so where your case calls for one, we connect you with a qualified professional rather than guessing.
