About the Grenada citizenship by investment program

The Grenada citizenship by Investment program was established and became effective in 2013 to promote economic development. Currently, this program is managed by the Grenada citizenship by investment Committee, which is responsible for processing applications under the Grenada citizenship by investment Act.

The Grenada Citizenship by Investment Program is one of the few programs, and the first in the Caribbean, to offer visa-free access to China and the right to work in the United States.

This program is particularly suitable for individuals and families who wish to invest in overseas real estate or make donations to a beautiful Caribbean country. In return, they will receive second citizenship, which means they will obtain a second citizenship, opening up many business and international travel opportunities.

Investing in citizenship in Grenada also allows foreign investors to experience the rich cultural and adventurous lifestyle of the "Spice Island" if they decide to settle, provided they meet all the minimum requirements set forth by the regulations.

The Grenada Citizenship by Investment Program is open to all foreign investors over the age of 18.
