Search for a Saint Lucia digital nomad visa and you will find a dozen guides with fees, forms, and a catchy program name. The government’s own visa page does not mention remote work at all.

Numbeo’s data puts a central one bedroom in Saint Lucia at about 502 dollars a month. The same flat in central New York runs about 4,433.
