Second Passport

GRENADA Citizenship Program Overview

Grenada’s Citizenship by Investment Program, established in 2013, provides an accessible pathway to acquiring a second passport. Through contributions or real estate investments, individuals and their dependents can obtain permanent residence and citizenship. A notable advantage is Grenada’s E-2 visa treaty with the US, allowing citizens to apply for a non-immigrant visa and reside there. With options like a $150,000 government donation or a $220,000 property investment, Grenada’s program offers a compelling opportunity for those seeking enhanced mobility and global opportunities.
