St Lucia passport replacement
Our assistance continues well beyond the grant of citizenship. If your passport is lost, stolen or damaged, we manage the replacement process to ensure that you always have a valid document.
When you need to replace your St Lucia passport
A Saint Lucia passport must be replaced if it is lost, stolen, or damaged to the extent that it cannot be used for travel or identification. A replacement may also be required if your name or other personal details have changed and the passport no longer reflects your current documents.
Immigrant Invest assists clients with St Lucia passport replacement regardless of their current country of residence. Our services include:
- review of supporting documents;
- preparation of affidavits and declarations;
- coordination with the relevant authorities in St Lucia;
- monitoring of the application until the new passport is issued and delivered.
Expert assistance is particularly valuable in urgent circumstances, for example if a passport is lost while travelling or when a valid document is needed for banking or legal matters. Careful management of the replacement process reduces the risk of delays and ensures that all official requirements are properly met.

If a Saint Lucia passport has been lost or stolen, the applicant must submit a witnessed statement as part of the replacement procedure. The statement must be completed in the prescribed form and certified with the signature and wet seal of a notary, lawyer or other authorised person.
In addition, the applicant must provide a copy of the police report. The report must be issued by the competent internal affairs authority in the country where the loss occurred and must be in English or accompanied by an official English translation.

The St Lucia replacement fee is EC$200, or approximately $74. If you apply through a diplomatic mission, local consular fees and payment requirements may apply.
