Grenada grants citizenship from USD 235,000 and is the only Caribbean CBI programme with a USA E-2 investor-treaty, enabling a route to live and work in the United States. It also offers visa-free access to China.
The Grenada Citizenship by Investment programme grants a second citizenship and passport, and is unique among Caribbean routes for one reason: Grenada holds a US E-2 investor treaty, opening a route to living and doing business in the United States that other Caribbean citizenships do not. The outcome is citizenship, regulated by Grenada's Investment Migration Agency (IMA) and, regionally, by ECCIRA.
The routes are established by SRO No. 15 of 2024 []: a US$235,000 contribution to the National Transformation Fund (family of up to four), or approved real estate from US$270,000 (fractional or approved-project share) or US$350,000 (sole ownership), each with a US$50,000 government fee. Due-diligence fees are US$5,000 per adult aged 17 and over [].
On the Mirabello Investment Migration Index Grenada scores well, helped by the E-2 differentiator. It is frequently compared with St Kitts and Nevis, Antigua and Barbuda and Dominica. Every figure is provenance-tracked and confirmed against the Grenada Investment Migration Agency and the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States.
