Grenada Citizenship by Investment

Latest Grenada Citizenship by Investment Updates- 2026

The Grenada citizenship program is always evolving, with regulations, compliance requirements and investment thresholds continuing to be updated.

2026 Programme Updates

The IMA regularly publishes programme notices, legislation, and regulatory updates, including recent 2025 and 2026 developments. Applicants should review the latest IMA communications before proceeding with any application.

Current Investment Requirements

There are two main routes to citizenship by investment in Grenada:

• National Transformation Fund (NTF): A non-refundable government contribution
• Approved Project Investment: An investment into a government-approved real estate or commercial project

Updated Investment Thresholds

The current IMA information identifies US$235,000 for the NTF route for a single applicant or a family of up to four. Check approved project investment requirements against the latest IMA information before applying.

Mandatory Interview and Due Diligence

All applicants are subject to background checks, source-of-funds verification, and due diligence assessments. Interview requirements currently apply and should be confirmed with the IMA or a qualified adviser.

Approved Projects

Only government-approved projects qualify under the Grenada citizenship by investment programme. Applicants should verify which projects currently hold approved status directly with the IMA before committing to any investment.

Who Is Eligible for Grenada Citizenship by Investment?

General eligibility criteria for citizenship by investment in Grenada include:

• Main applicant must be at least 18 years of age
• Demonstrated financial capacity to make the qualifying investment
• Clean criminal record and satisfactory background checks
• Completion of mandatory due diligence requirements
• Fulfilment of current interview obligations
• Spouse, dependent children and qualifying dependants may be included

Applicants should confirm the latest eligibility rules with the IMA before proceeding.

Family Inclusion

One practical advantage of the Grenada citizenship by investment programme is that qualifying family members can be included in a single application. Depending on current programme rules, eligible dependants may include:

1. Spouse
2. Dependent children
3. Dependent parents
4. Other qualifying dependants

Including family members affects the overall cost. Additional government fees and investment requirements may apply depending on family structure and the rules in place at the time of application. Confirm current family inclusion criteria with the IMA before applying.

Grenada Citizenship by Investment Requirements

Documents matter more than most applicants expect. Missing or incomplete paperwork is one of the most common reasons applications get delayed.

• Personal: Passport, birth certificate, marriage certificate where applicable, photographs and IMA application forms.
• Financial: Bank statements, source of funds and wealth evidence, business ownership records and investment documentation.
• Professional: Employment history, business registration, tax records and professional background.
• Background: Police clearance, residence and travel history, due diligence forms and any additional IMA-required documents.

Source of Funds and Source of Wealth

The two terms are frequently used interchangeably, but they have different meanings, and the IMA requires that both be clearly documented.

Source of Funds

This covers where the investment money comes from. A specific bank account, property sale proceeds, a business transaction or any other identifiable origin of the funds being invested must be clearly evidenced.

Source of Wealth

This goes a level deeper. It looks at how the applicant built their overall financial position over time. Common examples include business income, employment salary, property sales, investment returns, inheritance, dividends, and company ownership. The stronger and clearer the documentation, the smoother this part of the process tends to be.

How Long Does Grenada Citizenship by Investment Take?

There is no fixed timeline. Processing depends on application completeness, due diligence complexity, document verification, family size, source-of-funds review, interview scheduling, and government workload. No outcome can be guaranteed for any individual application.

Total Cost of Grenada Citizenship by Investment

The qualifying investment is only the starting point. Total costs typically include government processing fees, due diligence fees, application fees, passport fees, professional adviser fees, property or project-related costs where applicable, document legalisation, translation, courier and administrative expenses. The headline investment figure does not represent the full cost.

Do You Need to Live in Grenada to Apply?

Ongoing physical residency in Grenada is not typically required during the application process. However, travel and interview requirements currently apply. Applicants should verify the latest residency, travel and attendance obligations with the IMA before submitting an application.
