Overview

Citizenship by investment that carries a US treaty investor route.

One of the few citizenship programmes tied to a US E-2 treaty route, plus UK and Schengen access.

This jurisdiction is held in outline in our index rather than described at full length, because it tends to suit a narrower set of situations than the four or five that come up most often. The profile below gives the position, the tax treatment and the principal caveat. An assessment establishes whether it is genuinely open to you.

Editorial scores, 1–5, on a consistent basis across the index. 5 is favourable (low tax, strong mobility, fast, cheap, low presence). They are a comparison aid, not a recommendation, and they weight nothing — that is what the finder does.

Tax position

How Grenada taxes you

Grenada taxes residents on worldwide income, but citizenship does not make you tax resident. Most applicants never become resident and are therefore unaffected by the domestic code — a distinction that is frequently blurred in marketing.

The caveat that matters

What to watchThe donation threshold is high relative to the passport it buys, and the E-2 route is a visa, not a guarantee of admission. Due diligence has tightened considerably across the whole Caribbean basin.

A full route-by-route breakdown for Grenada is prepared as part of an assessment rather than published here, because eligibility turns on details that a summary page cannot capture honestly.

Editorial noteThis is an outline entry. Programme terms, thresholds and tax rules change frequently and without long notice. Nothing here is legal, tax or immigration advice, and no figure should be relied upon for a decision. Confirm the current position with licensed counsel in Grenada before acting.

Is Grenada actually open to you?

Eligibility depends on your citizenship, income sources, family structure and timeline. An assessment tells you whether Grenada is viable for your situation — and which routes are closed.
