Key Advantages of Grenada Citizenship by Investment

140+ Travel Destinations

Visa-free or visa-on-arrival access includes China, Hong Kong, Singapore, the UK and the Schengen Area. Entry conditions, permitted stays and electronic authorisations depend on the destination.

Potential US E-2 Investor Visa

Explore the opportunity to live in the United States and run a qualifying business through the E-2 investor visa. Investment citizens generally need three continuous years of domicile in Grenada, a separate substantial US business investment and approval under US visa rules. Citizenship alone does not grant a US visa.

One Application for Your Family

Include a qualifying spouse, children, parents and grandparents. Eligible unmarried adult siblings can also be included, subject to dependency and family-status rules.

No Minimum Stay

Apply without relocating to Grenada. The citizenship programme has no minimum residence requirement, and the application and interview can normally be managed remotely.

Two Routes to Citizenship

Choose an NTF contribution from $235,000, or approved real estate from $270,000 plus a $50,000 government contribution. Additional costs and family supplements apply.

Keep Your Existing Nationality

Grenada permits dual citizenship. You should also check whether your existing country of nationality imposes restrictions or reporting requirements.

A Lasting Family Connection

Successful applicants become Grenadian citizens. Future children and spouses may qualify under the applicable registration or nationality provisions; their status is not automatic.

Visit the UK Without a Visitor Visa

Grenadian passport holders can generally visit the UK for up to six months without a Standard Visitor visa. An approved Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) is normally required before travel. Visitor eligibility and border checks still apply; this does not permit settlement or ordinary employment.

NTF Donation

Support Grenada’s development through a one-time, non-refundable National Transformation Fund contribution. This route offers a straightforward alternative to buying and managing property.

Who can apply?

  • Main applicant aged 18 or over, in good health and able to satisfy criminal-record and background checks.
  • Documented lawful source of investment funds, identity, family relationships and any financial dependency.
  • Disclose immigration history, visa refusals and previous citizenship applications for eligibility review.
  • No language test or minimum residence requirement for citizenship. Forms and supporting evidence must be in English or appropriately translated.
  • Mandatory interview and identity checks apply to the main applicant, spouse, sponsor and dependants aged 17 or over, as applicable. A preferred interview language can be requested.

Who can be included?

Spouse and children

A qualifying spouse and dependent children under 30 may be included. Adult children must meet the applicable dependency and family-status conditions.

Parents and grandparents

Dependent parents and grandparents of the main applicant or spouse may qualify. Their age and family composition can affect the contribution.

Adult siblings

Qualifying siblings of the main applicant or spouse aged 18 or over must be unmarried and have no children. Dependency evidence is required.

Your family assessment

Every person must satisfy the programme’s checks. Confirm eligibility and the full family quotation before committing funds.

Process and Procedure

  1. Confirm eligibility and route

    Assess your nationality, immigration history, source of funds and family composition. Obtain a written quotation and use the required authorised agent structure.

  2. Prepare the NTF application

    Prepare identity, civil-status, police, financial and medical evidence, with certified translations where needed.

  3. Submission and compliance checks

    An authorised local agent submits the complete file. Complete the required bank compliance, background checks and interview, and answer any further requests.

  4. Decision and investment

    After approval in principle, pay the qualifying contribution and complete the outstanding requirements according to the official instructions. Earlier application and compliance costs may apply.

  5. Complete citizenship formalities

    Once the authorities accept the required payment and documents, complete the remaining citizenship and passport formalities through your agent. In-person passport collection is not generally required.

  6. Indicative planning: around 3½ months

    Allow around three and a half months for application processing, with variation for checks and document readiness. Project paperwork and final passport formalities can add time. A visit to Grenada and in-person passport collection are not normally required; arrange delivery through your authorised agent.

Citizenship

Citizenship and passport

Following approval and completion of the required investment and formalities, successful applicants receive citizenship documentation and may obtain a Grenadian passport.

Visa-free UK visits and international travel

Visit the UK for up to six months without a Standard Visitor visa. Grenadian passport holders normally need an approved ETA before travel and must meet the visitor rules. Entry is not guaranteed. The passport also offers visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to more than 140 destinations overall, subject to local entry conditions. This travel access does not grant a right to work or settle abroad.

Potential US E-2 Investor Visa

An opportunity to live in the US and operate a qualifying business through the E-2 investor visa. This is a separate visa application. Investment citizens generally need three continuous years of domicile in Grenada and a qualifying US business investment. Citizenship alone does not grant a US visa or permanent residence.

Family continuity

Dual nationality is permitted in Grenada. Future family additions and citizenship by descent depend on the rules and application procedures in force.

Citizenship does not automatically change your tax residence. Your personal circumstances and the laws of relevant countries determine your tax obligations.
