Grenada Citizenship by Investment 2026 🇬🇩

Typical timeline: 4–6 months to Grenadian citizenship, then 3–6 months for E-2 business setup and visa processing at a US consulate. Many clients are operating in the US within 12 months of starting.

The E-2 requires a 'substantial' at-risk investment in a real US business — in practice usually $100,000–$200,000+ (franchise purchases, existing businesses, or startups with premises and hiring plans).

Children under 21 receive E-2 dependant status and can attend US schools. For university, they typically transition to F-1 student status; the E-2 gives no green card, but it renews indefinitely.

Both work. Grenada is cheaper for families (donation from $235K vs $400K property), adds China visa-free and 146+ destinations, and has zero tax on worldwide income. Turkey gives a larger economy and a recoverable asset. We model both for every E-2 client.

Interviews are mandatory for everyone 17+, but they are efficient video calls with a due-diligence firm — typically 30–60 minutes — not an obstacle.

Yes — unmarried, childless siblings aged 18+ of the main applicant or spouse can be included with an additional $75,000 contribution.

No. Grenada does not tax foreign-source income, capital gains, wealth or inheritance. Only Grenada-source income is taxable.

Approved shares can be resold after 5 years, including to new CBI applicants, which creates a built-in buyer pool. Expect resale at or slightly below entry price; treat yield, not appreciation, as the return driver.
