Grenada Citizenship by Investment Requirements

Contribution or Real Estate Investment

Grenada offers one of the Caribbean's most sought-after Citizenship by Investment (CBI) programs, providing investors and their families with a direct pathway to Grenadian citizenship and a second passport.

Applicants can qualify through either:

• National Transformation Fund (NTF) Contribution – Starting from USD 235,000 for a family of up to four.

OR

• Government Approved Real Estate Investment – Starting from USD 270,000, with a mandatory holding period of at least five years.

Unlike residency programs, Grenada grants full citizenship and a passport directly upon approval without any physical residency requirements. One of the most attractive advantages is eligibility to apply for the USA E-2 Investor Visa.
