Grenada offers citizenship to approved applicants who make a qualifying contribution to the country, either a donation to a national fund or an investment in an approved project. This page maps the routes and points you to the official source.

Grenada runs a citizenship by investment programme administered by the Investment Migration Agency. Approved applicants and qualifying family members can obtain citizenship without a residence requirement before approval.
Grenada is one of the few citizenship by investment countries with a United States E2 investor treaty, which is part of why some applicants look at it. Treat the figures here as indicative and confirm the current rules with the official authority.
There are two main routes. The first is a non refundable contribution to the National Transformation Fund. The second is an investment in a government approved real estate project, which must be held for a set period.
All applicants must apply through an authorised agent, must be at least 18, and must pass due diligence. The agency runs background checks and can refuse an application.
Industry guidance describes processing of roughly seven to eight months from a complete submission to a decision, though timing depends on due diligence and the completeness of the file. Confirm current processing times with the official authority.
The donation route to the National Transformation Fund starts at a minimum non refundable contribution for a single applicant. The real estate route carries a higher minimum that must be held for a minimum period. Government, due diligence and processing fees apply on top. See the table and verify every figure with the official authority.
Grenada citizenship gives a Grenadian passport and the right to live in Grenada. It is the only Caribbean citizenship by investment country whose nationals can apply for the United States E2 investor visa under a bilateral treaty. Visa free or visa on arrival access for Grenadian passport holders changes over time, so check current access before relying on it.
