Guide last updated October 18, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the intended stay.
  • Completed online ETA application form
  • Confirmed return or onward flight ticket
  • Proof of accommodation (hotel reservation or host address)
  • Evidence of sufficient funds for the stay
  • Digital passport-style photo, white background, taken within the last 6 months, uploaded during the online application
  • No biometrics collected for the ETA itself; standard immigration photo/fingerprint may be taken on arrival
  • Travel health/medical insurance covering the stay is recommended

Visa types

  • Tourist ETA: single entry, valid for use within 90 days of issue, permits stays up to 90 days, fee approximately USD 20
  • Business ETA: same validity and stay length as tourist, requires an invitation letter from the host company
  • No separate student or long-stay visa category exists for this route; longer stays require a local residence permit application after arrival

How to apply online

  • Apply at the official Saint Kitts and Nevis government ETA portal at least 72 hours before travel
  • Steps: create an account, complete the application form, upload passport bio page and photo, pay the fee, submit
  • Fee: approximately USD 20 (EC 54), payable by credit/debit card
  • Processing time: typically 24-72 hours, often same-day for straightforward applications
  • Approval is emailed as a PDF; print it or save it on your phone to show on boarding and at immigration

Fees & processing time

  • ETA fee: approximately USD 20 (local currency EC 54)
  • No separate VFS/BLS service fee since the ETA is filed directly on the government portal
  • Total cost estimate: USD 20-25 including card processing charges
  • Standard processing time: 24-72 hours
  • Express processing is not formally offered, but early submission (5-7 days ahead) avoids any delay risk

Tips for Egypt travelers

  • Apply at least a week before travel to allow time to resolve any document issues
  • Common rejection reasons: blurry passport scan, mismatched name spelling between passport and booking, missing return ticket
  • Apply directly on the official government portal; avoid third-party sites that charge inflated fees
  • Keep a printed copy of the approval alongside your passport when checking in
  • Overstays beyond 90 days require an extension application with the Department of Immigration in Basseterre before the ETA period lapses
