St. Kitts and Nevis Biometric Enrolment and Passport Upgrade Assistance

Whether JH Marlin Law handled your original citizenship application or you are approaching us for the first time, our team can assist with:

• Linking your registration to Jennifer Harding-Marlin as your Authorised Agent;
• Guiding you through the government portal and its document requirements;
• Reviewing and confirming your appointment in the agent portal;
• Helping you prepare supporting documents for the passport process;
• Coordinating subsequent passport steps, including the handling and return of your existing passport when required; and
• Answering practical questions about family enrolment and travel timing.

You must attend an official collection centre in person. JH Marlin Law helps manage the process; biometric data is collected at government-designated locations.

Existing citizens register, choose an appointment and pay government fees through the official St. Kitts and Nevis Biometric Enrolment Platform.

Register with JH Marlin Law as your Authorised Agent

You can also visit biometrics.gov.kn and enter Agent Code AGT-CY96 when prompted.

Have the Certificate of Registration number and St. Kitts and Nevis passport details for each family member ready. If the portal asks you to choose between a file number and a Certificate of Registration number, select Certificate of Registration and enter your Certificate of Registration number. You may enter a telephone number local to your country of residence; a St. Kitts and Nevis telephone number is not required.

Once you submit your booking and payment, the appointment may show as pending while we review and confirm it in the agent portal. Please let us know when you have completed registration so we can locate your booking.

If you encounter a technical problem with the government platform, contact [email protected]. If a photo upload is failing, trying another browser may also help.

You will attend an official biometric collection centre, where your fingerprints, digital facial image and digital signature are captured. Appointments typically take 15 to 30 minutes.

Bring your appointment confirmation, your original valid passport, your St. Kitts and Nevis Certificate of Registration or Certificate of Citizenship, and any previous passport requested for your case. Check your booking confirmation for the final document instructions.

You do not surrender your current passport at the biometric appointment. It is presented for identification. Your passport remains available to you until you receive instructions about any later surrender required for the passport upgrade.

Children who obtained citizenship through the Citizenship Programme must also enrol under the applicable age-appropriate requirements. Families should make arrangements for every citizen who needs an appointment.

Official collection locations currently include St. Kitts, Dubai, Hong Kong, Istanbul, Ottawa, Toronto, London, Abu Dhabi, the Washington, D.C. area, Lagos, Jeddah, Singapore and Iraq. Availability and exact addresses are shown in the government booking portal and can change.

You do not need to travel to St. Kitts solely to provide biometrics if a suitable appointment is available at another official location. You must, however, attend your chosen centre in person.

An optional VIP service is available at the London collection centre for an additional US$500.

Government fees are paid through the official government portal, which displays the amount applicable to your booking. Any portal processing charge should be reviewed at checkout.

JH Marlin Law’s service fee is US$200 per person. A further US$200 shipping charge applies per shipment when we arrange shipment of the new biometric passports. These are fixed charges separate from the government enrolment fee. We will explain the applicable charges before you proceed.

Since September 2026, St. Kitts and Nevis has been integrating biometric enrolment with passport production. Supporting information and notarised documents can generally be submitted digitally through the official process. Passport production remains in St. Kitts.

Depending on your circumstances, our team may ask you to send scanned, notarised copies of documents such as your birth certificate, St. Kitts and Nevis Certificate of Registration, valid second government-issued photo identification, marriage certificate or name-change document. If a document is not in English, an English translation may be required. We will confirm the documents needed for your individual file.

Keep your existing passport after the biometric appointment. If it must later be surrendered, wait for instructions before shipping it. JH Marlin Law can coordinate its submission to the Passport Office and the return shipment of the new passport. If you have upcoming travel, tell us early so we can help you plan around the period when your passport may be unavailable.
