St Kitts and Nevis Bank Account Types

There are several types of bank accounts that a person can open in St Kitts and Nevis. Consumers can apply for a mortgage, car loan, and educational loans, and business development loans through St Kitts and Nevis banks. A legal entity can open current and trading accounts.

Current account: A current account is a regular bank account for frequent transactions such as deposits, withdrawals, and bill payments. Banks issue current account holders debit cards to facilitate easy transfers and card payments.

Foreign currency account: You can open a foreign currency account in banks across St Kitts and Nevis.

Savings account: A savings account in a bank in St Kitts and Nevis includes a term or fixed deposit. These types of accounts can be opened for a period of three, six, or twelve months. If you have a target savings account, a fixed amount of money will be automatically transferred from the consumer’s current account weekly, monthly, or every two months. If you have a regular savings account, you must transfer funds manually to earn quarterly interest payments.

Merchant account: Organizations can accept and make payment transfers through a merchant account. This account also allows businesses to accept payments from credit cards or other electronic payment methods.

Escrow account: To purchase St Kitts and Nevis real estate during its construction phase, you must transfer the funds to an escrow account. The buyer makes a wire transfer into an escrow account after signing a share agreement with the real estate developer.
