Concierge service for Grenada Citizenship by Investment. You hire My Latin Life; local immigration specialists (and licensed counsel where required) file on your behalf. The deliverable: a filed citizenship / nationality package with a clear next-step map — not advice, not a DIY packet.
Grenada’s Citizenship by Investment (CBI) program grants citizenship and a passport in exchange for a qualifying contribution to a government fund or investment in approved real estate. Caribbean CBI programs are among the world’s fastest and most established citizenship-by-investment pathways — typically processing in 3–6 months with no residency requirement. We handle the full application with our licensed Grenada attorneys and government-authorized agents.

Program Overview
Grenada’s CBI program (established 2013) stands out among Caribbean programs for one critical reason: the US E-2 Treaty Investor Visa. Grenada is the only Caribbean CBI country with an E-2 treaty with the United States, meaning Grenadian citizens can apply for renewable US work visas without being US citizens or permanent residents. For non-US nationals who want a pathway to work legally in the United States, Grenada CBI + E-2 visa is a powerful combination. The Grenada passport also provides visa-free access to the UK and the Schengen Area. Known as the “Spice Isle,” Grenada produces nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves, and is home to the world’s first underwater sculpture park.
Investment Options
US$235,000 single applicant; US$235,000 family of up to 4 (National Transformation Fund). Non-refundable. Fastest and simplest route for most applicants.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to visit Grenada to get citizenship?
No. The CBI program does not require you to visit Grenada before, during, or after the citizenship process. The entire application is handled remotely through authorized agents. Some applicants choose to take an oath of allegiance in person, but alternatives are available. Your citizenship and passport are valid regardless of whether you ever set foot in the country.
How long does the process take?
The standard processing timeline is 3–6 months from application submission to passport in hand. The due diligence phase is the primary variable. Working with government-authorized agents and submitting a complete, clean application file reduces the risk of delays.
Which Caribbean CBI program is best?
The best program depends on your priorities: minimum cost (Dominica and St. Lucia tend to have lower minimums), US visa-free access (Grenada is the only Caribbean CBI passport with E-2 visa treaty access to the US), processing speed, real estate investment quality, and program reputation for due diligence. We handle all five major Caribbean CBI programs and can recommend the right fit during your consultation.
How does the Grenada E-2 Visa combination work?
After obtaining Grenadian citizenship (3–6 months), you can apply to the US Embassy for an E-2 Treaty Investor Visa as a Grenadian citizen. The E-2 visa requires a substantial investment in a US business (typically US$100,000–500,000+), but grants the ability to live and work in the United States managing that business. The E-2 is renewable indefinitely as long as the business continues to operate. It is not a green card and does not lead directly to US permanent residency, but provides long-term US access for active investors and entrepreneurs.
