Eligibility for Nigerian nationals

Grenada citizenship by investment is open to applicants from many countries, and Nigerian nationals are generally able to apply. No published country bar targets Nigerian citizens, but each applicant must pass due diligence on identity, background and source of funds carried out for the Investment Migration Agency.

Applicants usually need a valid passport, police clearance, proof of the source of the funds and supporting family documents. Nigerian documents may need notarisation, legalisation and certified translation, so build that into your plan.

Qualifying routes

There are two main routes. The first is a contribution to the National Transformation Fund, a government fund that supports national projects. The second is the purchase of approved real estate, held for a set minimum period.

The National Transformation Fund contribution starts at USD 235,000 for a qualifying application, and the contribution is not recoverable. The approved real estate route requires at least USD 270,000 and the property must be held for at least five years. Family additions and government fees change the total, so confirm the current figures with the official authority.

Timeline

Applications run through an authorised agent and are assessed by the Investment Migration Agency, which manages due diligence and approval. Processing often takes a few months, but times vary with the volume of applications and the depth of checks.

Confirm the current processing time with the official authority. Allow extra time for gathering and legalising Nigerian documents before filing.

Costs

Budget for the qualifying contribution or investment plus due diligence fees, government and processing fees and professional help. Fees differ for a single applicant and a family, so treat the table as a checklist rather than a quote.
