Saint Lucia: Investment Climate Statement 2015

By U.S. Department of State

The Government of Saint Lucia strongly encourages foreign direct investment, particularly in industries that create jobs, earn foreign currency, and have a positive impact on its citizens. Invest Saint Lucia provides "one-stop shop" facilitation services to investors to guide them through the various stages of the investment process. Government concessions are granted by the applicable government agency, not Invest Saint Lucia.Invest Saint Lucia provides investors with information to help them navigate the business approvals process. The Saint Lucian government encourages investment in all sectors but the key targeted sectors are: tourism, smart manufacturing, and infrastructure (hard and soft), Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), alternative energy, education and offshore business, and knowledge processing operations. Additional sectors may be appraised on merit. Invest Saint Lucia has a website that is useful to navigate the laws, rules, procedures and registration requirements for foreign investors.
