FAQs · Grenada
What families ask about Grenada
Short answers, each with its legal basis. Your advisor goes through the rest with you.
All questions, by countryWho can apply?
Main applicants aged at least 18 who pass the Investment Migration Agency's due diligence and make a qualifying contribution or investment, together with their eligible family members. You contact an Authorised International Marketing Agent such as Orience's partner, and the Authorised Local Agent files the application in Grenada.
Legal basis: Citizenship by Investment Regulations, 2013 (SRO No. 17 of 2013) ↗
What is the minimum investment and which routes exist?
A contribution of USD 235,000 to the National Transformation Fund for the main applicant and up to three dependants; or real estate in an approved project from USD 350,000, or USD 270,000 per share in a tourism accommodation unit bought by two or more investors and valued at a minimum of USD 540,000. The real estate route adds a government contribution.
Legal basis: Citizenship by Investment (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations, 2024 (SRO No. 15 of 2024) ↗
Is there an interview?
Yes. The interview is mandatory and forms part of the due diligence. The main applicant, the spouse, the sponsor and every dependant aged 17 or over attend, online or in person. Orience prepares your family beforehand.
Legal basis: Citizenship by Investment (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations, 2024 (SRO No. 15 of 2024) ↗
Can I keep my current passport?
Yes. Grenada allows dual citizenship and does not require you to renounce any other nationality: the Constitution only provides for voluntary renunciation, and the Citizenship by Investment Act gives the investor every right of a citizen. Check that your home country also accepts a second passport.
Legal basis: Constitution of Grenada, Chapter VII; Grenada Citizenship by Investment Act 2013, s. 11(6) ↗
Can my children and grandchildren inherit it?
Yes for your children. Under the Constitution, a child born outside Grenada to a Grenadian parent who did not acquire citizenship by that same descent rule is a citizen at birth, and a citizen by investment qualifies. Grandchildren born abroad to that child are not covered automatically; if the child is born in Grenada, the chain continues.
Legal basis: Constitution of Grenada, ss. 96 and 97 ↗
Do I have to keep the real estate, and for how long?
Yes. The investment may not be disposed of for program purposes until five years from the grant of citizenship; after that, the next buyer may qualify for the program with the same property. Selling earlier can affect your citizenship. The property can be used or rented meanwhile, subject to the project's rules.
Legal basis: Citizenship by Investment Regulations, 2013 (SRO No. 17 of 2013) ↗
Who files the application?
Your application goes through an Authorised International Marketing Agent, Orience's partner in Grenada, and an Authorised Local Agent in Grenada submits the file to the Investment Migration Agency and applies for the passports once citizenship is granted. Orience coordinates both so that you have a single point of contact throughout.
Legal basis: Citizenship by Investment Regulations, 2013 (SRO No. 17 of 2013) ↗
What changed in 2024?
In March 2024 Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada and St Kitts and Nevis agreed a regional minimum investment of USD 200,000, and Grenada's regulations and the Agency's Circular No. 2 of 2024 set the current amounts: USD 235,000 for the fund route and higher thresholds for real estate. In 2025 the Agency also banned illegal discounting and owner financing of real estate.
Legal basis: IMA Circular No. 2 of 2024; OECS Memorandum of Agreement (March 2024) ↗
