DOMINICA Has Strongest CBI Controls in the OECS

While other leaders have been banned from travelling to the US due to lax citizenship by investment controls, our system continues to be the. Best in the OECS. Before leaving office the issues where addressed by Dr. Douglas. 

Former Prime Minister of St. Kitts and Nevis and current Leader of the Opposition, the Right Honourable Dr. Denzil Douglas, remains on a list of notable people who have been barred or excluded from the United States of America by the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) of the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which handles deportation in the United States, often in conjunction with advice from the U.S. Department of State.

According to the US Department of Homeland Security “Former Prime Minister of the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis, Denzil Douglas, has had his visa to enter the United States revoked in January 2015. This was because of his lax citizenship by investment controls which allowed for the participation of illicit actors, including individuals intending to use the secondary citizenship to evade US sanctions, who were then obtaining SKN passports with relative ease.”
