A fast track to a second passport through financial investment
Grenada has operated its citizenship by investment programme since 2013. Two structures qualify: a non-refundable contribution to the National Transformation Fund, or an investment in pre-approved property that may be sold on after a holding period.
Grenada is selected for what the citizenship permits afterwards — principally the United States E-2 treaty — rather than for the speed of issue.
Grenada is the only Caribbean state holding an E-2 treaty with the United States, so a citizen who opens a qualifying business may live and work in America with their family.
Visa-free travel to the United Kingdom, Canada, China, and the Schengen Area.
No tax on global income, inheritance, dividends, or capital gains for non-resident citizens.
The property option returns capital once the holding period has passed, so the cost of citizenship need not be written off.
Principals assembling a portfolio of jurisdictions rather than buying a single passport.
Founders who want an operating presence in the United States without waiting on an immigrant visa queue.
Households insuring against disruption where they live, with status that passes automatically to their children.
Owners whose trading and holding structures need a neutral second nationality behind them.
A non-refundable contribution to the government fund supporting Grenada’s economic development, employment, and social programmes. The most straightforward option, requiring no ongoing management.
Amounts: Principal applicant + spouse + 2 children: $235,000. Each additional family member: $25,000/$50,000 (child/adult). Sibling: $75,000.
Investment in tourism projects, hotels, or residential property with the right to sell after 5 years. Potential rental income and capital appreciation, with shared ownership options reducing the investment threshold.
Amounts: Principal applicant + spouse + 2 children: $350,000 (or $270,000 for shared ownership).
Over 18, with a legal income source, clean criminal record, no dangerous diseases, and sufficient funds for investment.
Clean criminal record.
Under 18, or over 18 if unmarried and financially dependent.
Financially dependent on the applicant.
Over 18, unmarried, childless, and financially dependent.
Cross-border decisions with clarity — from relocation and structuring to long-term planning, risk reduction, and private coordination.
