Aevamo’s reading
The Immigration (Visa) Order, made under s.7(3) of the Immigration Act, imposes the visa requirement: s.3(1) makes the passport of a subject or citizen of a country listed in Schedule 1 unacceptable for entry unless it bears a valid visa, and s.3(2)-(3) distinguish visa on arrival from visa prior to arrival. It creates the obligation rather than reporting it; the External Affairs lists and bilateral agreements describe or modify it.
The Department of External Affairs' table lists each of these countries with 'YES (pta)' or 'YES' under 'Foreigners visiting Saint Lucia', meaning a visa must be obtained prior to arrival.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
