Grenada citizenship by investment

It is fairly straightforward if one applies through the citizenship-by-investment program and meets the requirements. Investors receive a Grenada passport within about 6 months. The minimum investment requirement is $235,000. It is important to provide all necessary documents and pass the Due Diligence check.

Applications cannot be submitted directly, only through a licensed agent of the Grenada citizenship-by-investment program. This is an advantage, as the entire process is handled by experienced experts.

The Grenada passport is among the strongest in the Caribbean. It grants visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 161 countries and territories, including the UK, the European Union, the Schengen Area, and China.

Yes, Grenada and the USA have an agreement that allows Grenadian citizens to apply for an E‑2 business visa to live and work in the United States. However, there is a condition: before applying for an E‑2 visa, one must reside in Grenada for 3 years.

Yes, but a visa is required. Grenada passport holders can obtain a US B‑1/B‑2 Visitor Visa for business and tourism. To run a business in the USA, Grenadian citizens may apply for an E‑2 or EB‑5 visa.

To qualify for Grenada citizenship, an investor must make a non-refundable contribution of $235,000 to the National Transformation Fund or purchase real estate worth at least $270,000. The investor also pays Due Diligence fees, government fees and charges, notary and courier service fees, and bank commission.

An investor can receive a Grenada passport in as little as 6 months. Grenada citizenship provides:

• visa-free travel to 161;
• eligibility for a US E‑2 visa;
• tax optimisation: no taxes on worldwide income, dividends, interest, royalties, inheritance, or capital gains;
• access to international bank accounts.

Yes, foreigners may purchase property in Grenada and, through this, obtain a “golden passport.” To participate in the citizenship by investment program, one must buy a share in a government‑approved project for at least $270,000.

About 6 months. The timeframe may be extended if the Citizenship by Investment Unit requests additional documents.

Property owners pay an annual tax of 0.5% of the cadastral value. For properties purchased under the citizenship program, the tax may be reduced to 0.2% or waived.

The Grenada passport is valid for 10 years. It can be renewed remotely by sending the original passport to lawyers and paying the government fee.

Newborn children of the investor can be granted Grenada passports only within 12 months of the investor receiving their own passport. Other family members must be added to the application before approval is issued.
