On 3 December 2014 the government of St Kitts & Nevis (SKN) announced the immediate recall and replacement of passports that meet one of the following three conditions:

  1. Issued between January 2012 and July 2014; or
  2. Does not show a place of birth; or
  3. Does not reflect any previously held names (name change).

FAQs

Q: Why is the government doing this?

Because some versions of previous passports don't list country of birth and certain countries require SKN citizens to obtain visas that require country of birth appear on passport.

Q:  Does this adversely impact my citizenship or passport?

No

Q:  When is the submission deadline?

31 January 2015. After that date, all recalled passports will be voided for international travel.
