The arrangement will also see nationals of Turkey enter the Federation without a visa with the option of staying for up to 90 days. 

“This is part of the St. Kitts and Nevis government’s on-going initiative to increase the number of countries to which its citizens have visa-free access. 

This, officials hope would foster greater opportunities, people-to-people and commercial contacts. 

In 2008, the Federation signed a short-term visa waiver agreement which allows persons with a valid St Kitts and Nevis passport to travel to any Schengen country without needing a visa and holders of valid passports from the EU to travel to St. Kitts and Nevis without a visa. 

The Schengen countries are Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxemburg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden.
