🇰🇳 Saint Kitts and Nevis visa requirements for Japanese citizens

Entry rules for Japan passport holders

Holders of a valid passport from Japan can travel to Saint Kitts and Nevis for tourism or short business trips without applying for a visa, for stays of up to 90 days. You'll typically just need a passport valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date, and you may be asked to show proof of onward travel or sufficient funds at the border.

The 90-day limit applies to the visit itself — if you plan to stay longer, work, or study in Saint Kitts and Nevis, you'll need to apply for the appropriate visa or permit before traveling.

Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Saint Kitts and Nevis immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.

This is not reciprocal — traveling the other way, Kittitian or Nevisian citizens need to arrange entry to Japan in advance (visa required).

Across Caribbean as a whole, 12 of 13 destinations are open to Japanese travelers without arranging a visa in advance.
