Кто имеет право

  • Grenada operates a statutory Citizenship by Investment (CBI) programme enabling a non-national to acquire Grenadian citizenship 'by registration following investment in Grenada', via either of two investment limbs: (a) a payment into the National Transformation Fund (NTF) under s.10, or (b) a payment towards an approved project under s.11. The programme is established by the Grenada Citizenship by Investment Act No. 15 of 2013 (assented 29 Aug 2013) and administered by the Citizenship by Investment Committee, today operating as the Investment Migration Agency (IMA). - The CBI main applicant must be at least 18 years of age (Act 15/2013 s.5(1)(a)). There is NO statutory language test and NO civics/knowledge test for a CBI applicant. Dual citizenship is permitted — no renunciation of a prior nationality is required, because neither Constitution Cap 128A Part VII nor Citizenship Act Cap 54 imposes a renunciation condition (Cap 54 s.10 concerns outward renunciation of Grenadian citizenship only). An applicant who is granted citizenship by investment takes the oath/affirmation of allegiance in the form in the Schedule to the Citizenship Act Cap 54. - A CBI applicant is statutorily disqualified (s.8(3)) if the applicant: (a) has provided false information on the application; (b) has, without a free pardon, ever been convicted in any country of an offence for which the maximum custodial penalty for the same/similar offence in Grenada exceeds six months' imprisonment; (c) is the subject of a criminal investigation; (d) is considered a potential national-security risk to Grenada or any other country; (e) is involved in any activity likely to bring Grenada into disrepute; or (f) has been denied a visa by a country with which Grenada has visa-free travel and has not subsequently obtained a visa from that country.

Как подать заявление

  • A CBI application may ONLY be submitted to the Committee by a licensed Local Agent (direct applications are prohibited). A Local Agent must be a national of a CARICOM member state (Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas) who is ordinarily resident in Grenada and holds a Local Agent's licence. All monies are placed in an irrevocable escrow account controlled by the Local Agent before the application is considered. The application form and all documents must be completed in English (with authenticated translations where the original is not in English). - The Committee must notify the Local Agent of its decision within 60 days of submission of a complete application (Act 15/2013 s.8(2)); IMA's published FAQ states applications are approved within 60 business days subject to satisfactory due diligence. Practitioner data place real-world end-to-end processing at approximately 6-8 months. There is no expedited/fast-track service. A denied application may be referred by the Minister to a review panel (s.9). - The official cbi.gov.gd HOMEPAGE displays a STALE minimum-contribution figure of US$150,000 (and a stale '3-4 months' timeline) — this is the superseded pre-2024 amount and is NOT current. The current NTF minimum is US$235,000 (SRO 15/2024, EIF 1 Jul 2024). The deep cbi.gov.gd NTF route page and the IMA fee schedule carry the correct US$235,000 figure. The US$150,000 figure must never be asserted as a current Grenada CBI minimum. - The deposited NTF contribution is held in escrow/in the fund until the registration of the applicant's citizenship (or permanent residence) is completed, at which point it is applied per the application terms (Act 15/2013 s.8(4)(a)); after approval, the applicant has 30 days to pay the balance of the processing fee and deposit the required contribution (NTF) or execute the approved-project investment documents (s.8(4)). An applicant granted citizenship by investment enjoys all the rights of a citizen subject to the limitations in the Representation of the People Act Cap 286A (s.8(6)).

Правовая основа

Primary statute: Act 15/2013 s.11 (am. Act 3/2019 s.5); SRO 15/2024. Operative 2013-08-01–present. Authority: Investment Migration Agency (IMA) / CBI Committee.

  • Not permitted — there is a mandatory 5-year holding period before disposal.

    Act 3/2019 (amending s.11) imposes a minimum 5-year holding period before the qualifying real estate may be disposed of (s.11(3)); resale to a subsequent CBI buyer is permitted only after 5 years (s.11(4)). Selling at 18 months would breach the holding requirement and risk revocation. The OECS MoU also bans guaranteed buy-back/discount arrangements, so no developer can promise an early guaranteed exit.

  • Eligible via approved real estate — co-investment share from US$270,000 (or US$350,000 sole unit), plus a US$50,000 Government Fee and ~US$11,000 registration; 5-year holding period.

    GD-INV-02 (Act 15/2013 s.11, am. Act 3/2019 s.5; SRO 15/2024) requires investment in a Government-approved real-estate project: from US$270,000 for a co-investment share or US$350,000 for a sole/full unit, PLUS a US$50,000 Government Fee and ~US$11,000 property/share registration, with a mandatory 5-year holding period before disposal (resale to a subsequent CBI buyer permitted after 5 years). Real estate is higher all-in cost than the US$235,000 donation but offers a potentially recoverable asset; ~70% of approvals are real estate.

  • Both routes carry the same per-dependent surcharges and per-person fees; the comparison turns on base investment (US$235,000 NTF vs US$270,000+US$50,000 government fee real estate).

    Per-person government fees and per-dependent investment add-ons (+US$25,000 per dependant over 55 beyond the base-of-four) are identical across NTF and real estate (GD-INV-03 / SRO 15/2024). The decisive difference is the base: NTF US$235,000 (non-refundable) vs real-estate co-investment US$270,000 + US$50,000 Government Fee + ~US$11,000 registration. For pure cost minimisation the NTF donation is cheaper; real estate is chosen for the potentially recoverable asset. The two grandparents (both 55+) add +US$50,000 either way.

  • Such a guaranteed buy-back is prohibited — the OECS MoU bans guaranteed buy-back and discount arrangements; the promise is not enforceable as a compliant CBI feature.

    The March-2024 OECS Memorandum of Agreement (given domestic effect via SRO 12/2024 then SRO 15/2024) makes discounting of the agreed minimum price illegal and bans rebates and guaranteed buy-back arrangements. A developer's 'guaranteed buy-back' would violate the MoU and cannot be treated as a compliant or reliable feature; the investor bears genuine market risk on the asset.

  • Insufficient — the real-estate co-investment share minimum is US$270,000 since SRO 15/2024 (EIF 1 Jul 2024); the US$220,000 figure is pre-2024 and superseded.

    GD-INV-02 records the share minimum rose from a reported pre-2024 US$220,000 to US$270,000 effective 1 July 2024 (SRO 15/2024), to clear the OECS US$200,000 floor. The investor must budget US$270,000 for a share (or US$350,000 for a sole unit), plus the US$50,000 Government Fee and ~US$11,000 registration. (The pre-2024 US$220,000 is secondary-sourced and not the current minimum.)

  • Eligible via a sole/full unit at US$350,000 (constant since launch), plus the US$50,000 Government Fee and ~US$11,000 registration; 5-year hold.

    GD-INV-02 sets two real-estate tiers: a co-investment share from US$270,000, or a sole/full unit at US$350,000 (full_unit_min_usd, constant since launch). A standalone villa is the full-unit tier at US$350,000, plus the same US$50,000 Government Fee, ~US$11,000 registration, per-person fees, and a 5-year holding period before disposal.
