Becoming a Citizen of Grenada
Answer
The general rule applies to you
No exception is recorded for citizens of Belize on this topic. That is the answer, not a gap - everything below is the rule you get, unchanged.
91 exceptions recorded across 34 countries · none match Belize to Grenada · Becoming a citizen
Four doors, and they are very different sizes. Birth in Grenada confers citizenship unconditionally. Marriage to a citizen is an entitlement with no waiting period at all. Naturalisation needs a residence permit, twelve months in the country immediately before the application and five years out of the preceding seven - and since 2012 the residence permit has been a precondition rather than an alternative. And investment buys it directly: since 2019 there is no permanent residence step and no days in the country, the National Transformation Fund figure is US$235,000 for a main applicant and up to three dependants, and the approved project minimum is US$350,000. A regional agreement given force of law in 2025 would add a thirty-day residence requirement; the agency administering the programme announced in August 2026 that it is not taking effect yet.
At a glance
- Naturalisation: residence immediately before applying
- 12 months
Section 7(1)(b) of the Citizenship Act as substituted by Act 20 of 2012, which also added the requirement to hold a permit of residence.
- Naturalisation: residence in the preceding seven years
- 5 years
Section 7(1)(c). Government service counts in place of residence, and section 7(2)(b) lets the Minister reckon periods earlier than the seven years.
- Registration as a Commonwealth or Irish citizen: residence
- 5 years
Section 5(1)(c), reducible to not less than twelve months in special circumstances at the Minister's discretion.
- Marriage: waiting period
- None
Section 98 of the Constitution and section 5(3) of the Citizenship Act. See the marriage record.
- Investment: National Transformation Fund
- US$235,000
Schedule I to the Citizenship by Investment Regulations as substituted by S.R.O. 15 of 2024, in force 1 July 2024, for a main applicant and up to three dependants. There is no longer a separate single-applicant rate.
- Investment: approved project
- US$350,000 minimum
Same table. Unchanged in money terms since S.R.O. 13 of 2019.
- Investment: shared unit in a tourism project
- US$270,000 a share
Same table, where two or more individuals buy a unit in the Tourism Accommodation priority sector. The qualifying value of the whole unit is the figure the amendment chain disagrees about - see the sections below.
- Investment: government contribution on a project
- US$50,000
Schedule I, for a main applicant and up to three dependants, with US$25,000 for each additional dependant. The same figures apply to a significant investment under section 11A.
- Investment: additional dependants
- US$25,000 each
Schedule I. A parent or grandparent aged fifty-five or under costs US$50,000 and a sibling US$75,000, because those are the paragraph (f) and paragraph (g) dependants.
- Investment: interview fee
- US$1,000 per person
Inserted into Schedule I by S.R.O. 34 of 2023 with effect from 1 September 2023, payable for the main applicant, spouse, each child aged seventeen and over, each dependent parent, a single applicant and a financial sponsor.
- Investment: holding period
- 5 years
Sections 11(3) and 11A(5A) of the Citizenship by Investment Act, inserted by Act 3 of 2019. It runs from the grant of citizenship.
- Investment: days of residence required
- None, for now
Repealed in 2019. The Eastern Caribbean agreement given force of law by Act 19 of 2025 would require thirty days in five years, and the agency said in August 2026 that it will not take effect until the regional regulator is operational.
- Investment: decision period
- 60 days
Section 8(2) of the Citizenship by Investment Act requires the Committee to notify the decision within sixty days of a complete application.
- Dual citizenship
- Permitted
Nothing in the Constitution or the Citizenship Act requires renunciation of another nationality. Section 10 provides for voluntary renunciation of Grenadian citizenship, not for compulsory renunciation of anything else.
- Voting rights of an investment citizen
- Limited by the Representation of the People Act
Section 8(6) of the Citizenship by Investment Act makes the rights of a citizen subject to the limitations in that Act, which we have not read.
Requirements
- By birth: nothing, if you were born in Grenada on or after 7 February 1974 and neither exception in the proviso to section 96 applies
- By descent: nothing, if a parent was a citizen otherwise than by descent when you were born abroad
- By marriage: an application and, for an alien, the oath of allegiance. No residence and no waiting period
- By registration as a Commonwealth or Irish citizen: good character, adequate English, five years of residence or government service, and an intention to stay
- By naturalisation: a permit of residence, twelve months immediately before applying, five years out of the preceding seven, good character, English and an intention to stay
- By investment: one of the two statutory investments, an application through a licensed Local Agent, due diligence, an interview, and the oath
In detail
The amendment chain of the investment thresholds
The figures are in Schedule I to the Citizenship by Investment Regulations of 2013, and that Schedule has been amended by instrument at least seventeen times. The money moved like this. In 2013 the National Transformation Fund cost US$75,000 for permanent residence and US$125,000 for citizenship twelve months later, with an approved project minimum of US$500,000. S.R.O. 42 of 2017 cut the single-applicant Fund figure from US$200,000 to US$150,000. S.R.O. 6 of 2019 inserted a shared tourism unit at US$220,000 a share, was repealed two weeks later by S.R.O. 8 of 2019, and the same row was put back with a twenty per cent developer equity condition. S.R.O. 13 of 2019 then replaced the whole table on 24 May 2019: single applicant US$150,000, main applicant with up to three dependants US$200,000, approved project US$350,000, shared unit US$220,000 where the whole unit was worth at least US$440,000. S.R.O. 34 of 2023 added a US$1,000 interview fee per person. S.R.O. 12 of 2024, gazetted 26 June, replaced the table again at US$235,000 and US$350,000, with the shared unit raised to US$270,000 a share. S.R.O. 15 of 2024, gazetted 28 June, replaced it once more with an identical table save for one figure, and repealed S.R.O. 12 outright. Both were expressed to come into force on 1 July 2024, so the instrument that was repealed never operated for a day.
The one figure the chain cannot agree on
The difference between the two 2024 instruments is the qualifying value of a tourism unit bought by two or more people. S.R.O. 12 of 2024 put it at US$440,000; S.R.O. 15 of 2024, two days later, put it at US$540,000 and repealed its predecessor. Then in March 2025 S.R.O. 21 of 2025 amended Schedule I by deleting a row and substituting another. The row it sets out as the one to be deleted reads US$440,000 - the figure from the repealed instrument, not the figure in the Schedule as it then stood. The row it substitutes also reads US$440,000, with a new six per cent equity condition for a Grenadian developer. A reader who takes the deletion at face value finds nothing to delete, because Schedule I said US$540,000; a reader who takes the substitution at face value finds US$440,000 back in force. We publish both figures and the instrument each comes from, and we do not state a single answer, because the instruments do not.
What the 2025 amendment was actually for
Beneath the confusion S.R.O. 21 of 2025 does something deliberate and interesting. It defines a Grenadian Developer - an individual of Grenadian nationality, or a company wholly owned by such individuals, who has never worked on another country's investment citizenship programme - and gives that developer a discount across the board: US$3,000 to apply for project approval instead of US$10,000, US$2,250 in due diligence instead of US$7,500, US$6,000 a year in project administration instead of US$20,000, and a six per cent equity threshold instead of twenty. It is industrial policy inside a citizenship instrument, aimed at getting local developers into a market dominated by foreign ones, and the exclusion of anyone who has worked on a rival programme is the sharpest part of it.
Naturalisation now runs through the immigration ministry
Act 20 of 2012 made one change to the Citizenship Act and it is a structural one. Section 7(1)(b) used to ask only that the applicant had resided in Grenada for the twelve months immediately before applying. It now asks that they hold a permit of residence issued by the Minister responsible for immigration and have resided here for those twelve months. Since the permit of permanent residence under section 24 of the Immigration Act is granted at that Minister's discretion with no criteria beyond good character and an intention to stay, the practical effect is that naturalisation depends on a prior discretionary decision by a different ministry, with no appeal from either.
The regional residence requirement, enacted and suspended
In 2025 Grenada gave force of law to the agreement establishing the Eastern Caribbean Citizenship by Investment Regulatory Authority. Article 48 of that agreement would require every new investment citizen and their dependants to be physically present in the country for an aggregate of thirty days during or up to the first five calendar years after the grant, with each of them individually present for at least five days in the first twelve months, plus a mandatory integration programme, a Declaration of Presence before any passport renewal, and a passport issued for five years renewable to ten only on certification that all of this has been done. Failure, without reasonable excuse, is a ground to begin revoking the citizenship. The Act is expressed to come into force on a date the Minister appoints by Order, and we found no Order. On 21 August 2026 the Investment Migration Agency published a circular saying that notwithstanding a recent amendment scheduled to commence on 31 August 2026, the residence requirement will not take effect until the regional regulator is operational and all participating states have agreed a commencement date. So the requirement is enacted, announced, scheduled, and not in force.
There is no consolidated text of any of this
The Citizenship by Investment Act is not in the revised edition of the Laws of Grenada and has no Chapter number, so there is no consolidation of it at all: the reader assembles Act 15 of 2013 with amendments from 2014 twice, 2015, 2016, 2017 twice, 2018 and 2019. The Regulations are worse, because Schedule I has been substituted wholesale three times and amended piecemeal many more. And the two places that publish the material do not agree with each other. The law portal has S.R.O. 12 of 2024 and S.R.O. 76 of 2020, which the Agency's legislation page does not list; the Agency has S.R.O. 21 of 2025 and S.R.O. 15 of 2024, and lists S.R.O. 41 of 2020 as amendment Regulations when it is in fact an Order about where oaths may be sworn. Neither source alone is sufficient and we used both.
Country-level policy
This is the most-searched fact about Grenada and almost everything written about it is written by someone selling a passport. Here is what the instruments say. A treaty between the United States and Grenada concerning the reciprocal encouragement and protection of investment was signed at Washington on 2 May 1986 and entered into force on 3 March 1989. It is a bilateral investment treaty, not a treaty of friendship, commerce and navigation. Its Article II(3) lets nationals of either party enter and remain in the other for the purpose of an investment, subject to that party's own laws on the entry of aliens. The E-2 classification itself is United States law: the Immigration and Nationality Act requires a qualifying treaty of commerce and navigation, and the State Department's own manual says such treaties may include bilateral investment treaties. The Department's treaty country list records Grenada for E-2 with an effective date of 3 March 1989, and for E-2 only - Grenada has no E-1 treaty trader status. None of this is Grenadian law and none of it does anything at a Grenadian counter.
Grenada publishes its law well, in two halves that do not meet. The Chapters are the Continuous Revised Edition of 2010, and most of them are amended only to the mid-2000s: the Immigration Act stops at Act 6 of 2007, the Citizenship Act at Act 31 of 2002, the Income Tax Act at Act 2 of 2010. The Acts and Statutory Rules and Orders since are published separately, by year, as enacted. Nothing in either half tells you that the other exists. Read the Immigration Chapter and you will not know that Eastern Caribbean citizens have an indefinite stay or that Schengen passports enter visa-free. Read the Income Tax Chapter and you will take the rate as thirty per cent when it is twenty-eight. Read the Banking Chapter and you will be reading an Act repealed in 2015.
In November 2025 Grenada gave the force of law to an agreement establishing an Eastern Caribbean Citizenship by Investment Regulatory Authority, made on 18 September 2025. The agreement does the thing the region has been pressed to do: a common regulator, common standards, an appeals tribunal, and - the part that reached the news - a residence requirement. Every new investment citizen and their dependants would have to be physically present for an aggregate of thirty days during or up to the first five calendar years after the grant, with each of them individually present for at least five days in the first twelve months, and a passport issued for five years renewable to ten only on certification that this has been done. The Act is expressed to come into force on a date the Minister appoints, and we found no such date. In August 2026 the agency administering the programme told applicants the requirement will not take effect until the regional regulator exists.
What applies to you
Nothing changes for a citizen of Belize
We have no rule recorded that treats your citizenship differently here, so the general rule above is the one that applies to you. That is an answer, not a gap.
What the law says
«Every person born in Grenada on or after 7th February, 1974, shall become a citizen of Grenada at the date of his or her birth:»The two exceptions in the proviso are a child of a diplomat where neither parent is a citizen, and a child born in a place under occupation by a country Grenada is at war with.

Practical notes
The qualifying value of a shared tourism unit is stated on this record as two figures from two instruments rather than as one answer. S.R.O. 15 of 2024 put it at US$540,000 and is the last instrument to substitute the table; S.R.O. 21 of 2025 purports to delete a US$440,000 row and substitute another US$440,000 row. The two cannot both be given effect and nothing we read resolves it.
The Investment Migration Agency's legislation page lists twenty-two instruments and omits S.R.O. 12 of 2024, S.R.O. 76 of 2020, S.R.O. 34 of 2023, S.R.O. 38 of 2023, S.R.O. 8 of 2019, S.R.O. 16 of 2016 and S.R.O. 20 of 2017, all of which are on the law portal. It also describes S.R.O. 41 of 2020 as amendment Regulations; the instrument is the Oaths and Affirmations of Allegiance Outside of Grenada Order. The page carries no links: the titles are plain text and the documents have to be found through the site's media library.
The amendment described in the Agency's Circular No. 2 of 2026 as recently made and scheduled to commence on 31 August 2026 is not on the law portal. The portal's Acts for 2026 stop at Act 5 and its Statutory Rules and Orders at number 3. We could not read it and nothing on this record states what it says.
Figures of US$150,000 for a single applicant are still widely published for the National Transformation Fund. That row was in the table S.R.O. 13 of 2019 created and is absent from the table S.R.O. 15 of 2024 substituted for it. On the instrument in force a single applicant pays US$235,000.
The limitations the Representation of the People Act places on an investment citizen's rights are referred to in section 8(6) of the Citizenship by Investment Act and we have not read that Act. Nothing on this record states what those limitations are.
Everything published about citizenship by investment is written by people selling it. Nothing on this record comes from an intermediary: every figure is traced to a Statutory Rule and Order read in full, and where the instruments conflict we say so rather than choosing the number the market uses.

Its legislation page lists twenty-two instruments and omits at least seven that are on the law portal, describes S.R.O. 41 of 2020 as amendment Regulations when it is an Order about where oaths may be sworn, conflates the Act with its commencement Notice, and carries no links at all - the titles are plain text and the documents are reachable only through the site's media library. It published S.R.O. 21 of 2025 fifteen months after gazetting. It must not be cited for the thresholds themselves, which are in the Statutory Rules and Orders, nor for immigration or residence law, which it does not administer. Its circulars are statements of administrative intention and one of them defers a statutory obligation; they are evidence of what the agency will do and not of what the law requires. The predecessor domain cbi.gov.gd no longer resolves, so any citation to it is dead.

Laws of Grenada · consolidated to 2010
About this source
The Government of Grenada's law portal. Publishes the Continuous Revised Edition of 2010 arranged by Chapter, each Chapter printing the Act with its subsidiary legislation, and separately a year-by-year run of Acts and Statutory Rules and Orders as enacted from 2011.
Standing: Maintains the text in force
Cannot be cited for: A Chapter must never be cited for what the law is now, and nothing on the page says so: the Immigration Chapter is amended only to 2007 and lacks the OECS indefinite stay and the Schengen visa waiver; the Citizenship Chapter stops at 2002 and shows section 5A as repealed when an Act of 2016 has since filled it; the Income Tax Chapter prints 30 per cent when three Orders have made it 28 and 10; the Banking Chapter is an Act repealed in 2015. Subsidiary legislation printed inside a Chapter is equally frozen - the CARICOM skills Qualifications Order is shown as amended to 2008 and the 2015 amendment that added artisans and domestic workers is invisible. It must also not be cited for completeness after 2025: the 2026 collections hold five Acts and three instruments, and an amendment the investment agency publicly relied on in August 2026 is in neither. The Citizenship by Investment Act is not in the revised edition at all and has no consolidated text anywhere. Year listings paginate twenty at a time, so reading only the first page loses instruments.
