The pursuit of a second passport has become a strategic goal for individuals and families looking to broaden their global opportunities. Caribbean countries were among the pioneers in introducing citizenship by investment programs, with Grenada standing out as one of the leading options. Grenada’s Citizenship by Investment program offers a range of benefits, including visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to numerous countries. Notably, Grenada is the only Caribbean nation that provides the added advantage of securing an E-2 Investor Visa Treaty with the USA, all while allowing for dual citizenship.
It's essential to understand that, like many citizenship programs, you don’t need to navigate the application process alone. Soluna HK, as a trusted partner, offers a comprehensive application package that includes all necessary documentation and step-by-step guidance.
With quick processing times, visa-free travel privileges, and a stable economy, Grenada emerges as an attractive option for those considering citizenship by investment.

Citizenship by Investment Options in Grenada
Grenada’s Citizenship by Investment program offers two primary paths: the Non-refundable Investment option, focused on direct financial contributions to the country’s development, and the Real Estate Investment option, which combines citizenship acquisition with property ownership. Each option has its distinct benefits, allowing applicants to choose based on personal goals and preferences.
National Transformation Fund: Under the Non-refundable Investment option, applicants can contribute to Grenada’s National Transformation Fund, supporting national development projects in areas like healthcare, education, and infrastructure.
The minimum non-refundable contribution for single or family applicants up to four people is USD 235,000. This option is ideal for those who wish to make a direct financial impact on the country's development.
The Real Estate Investment option allows individuals to invest in government-approved real estate projects in Grenada. This option not only grants citizenship but also provides an opportunity for capital growth through property ownership. To qualify for this option, applicants must make a minimum real estate investment of USD 270,000 in a government-approved project.
This option is particularly appealing for those who seek both citizenship and a tangible asset. Grenada's real estate market offers a range of investment opportunities, from luxury resorts to residential developments.
Families are also eligible for the Real Estate Investment option. The Real Estate Investment option combines the benefits of citizenship with the potential for long-term financial growth, making it an attractive choice for savvy investors. It’s important to note that the state fee should be also paid in the amount of fixed USD 50,000 when buying real estate in Grenada.
