Saint Kitts and Nevis eTA and eVisa

What Is the Saint Kitts and Nevis eTA?

The Saint Kitts and Nevis eTA (Electronic Travel Authorisation) is a digital permission to travel to Saint Kitts and Nevis. It is not a visa – it authorizes eligible visitors to travel to the islands.

The eTA application also includes the Immigration and Customs ED Form, so travelers complete their health and customs declarations in the same online form.

Nationals of countries that require a visa must apply for the Saint Kitts and Nevis eVisa instead. The Visitor eVisa allows a stay of up to 3 months.
