CITIZENSHIP BY INVESTMENT
Citizenship by Investment allows families around the world the opportunity to quickly become a citizen of another country without having to drastically change their lifestyles or place their lives on hold. Like an insurance policy, a second citizenship ensures that families always have a plan B should they need to escape unsettling social, political or economic conditions in their homeland. With a second citizenship families will not only have immediate visa-free access to numerous countries, they will also have an alternative place to live, work, retire, and seek refuge if they so desire.
To become a citizen of Grenada through its Citizenship by Investment Programme, applicants must be 18 years or older, must have a clear criminal record and must not be stateless or from Iran. Applications can include a spouse, children under the age of 30, parents/grandparents of any age and unmarried, childless siblings that are 18 years or older.

SELECTING A CITIZENSHIP OPTION
Choosing the appropriate option through which you acquire citizenship for yourself and your family is important and should always be dependent on your end goal. Ultimately, both popular options offered by Grenada’s Citizenship by Investment Programme, provide the same rights and privileges held by natural-born Grenadians.
