The Ministry of National Security alerts the public of a fraudulent visa approval letter being sent
to persons desirous of entering the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis. The scammers behind this
fraudulent letter are posing as officials from the Immigration and Passport Office and attempting
to extract payment from recipients of the letter. The Ministry of National Security takes St. Kitts
and Nevis passport and visa fraud very seriously and will work with its National Security
counterparts in other territories to end fraudulent practices.
