Grenada digital nomad visa: requirements (2026)

Digital nomad visa in Grenada: dedicated visa.

Grenada enacted the Remote Employment Act in October 2021, establishing a dedicated visa category for remote workers and digital nomads to reside in Grenada for up to two years while employed by or contracting with entities outside the country. Separately, Grenada operates a long-standing Citizenship by Investment (CBI) programme under the IMA, offering a route to full citizenship via qualifying investments. Foreign-sourced income earned under the digital nomad visa is not subject to Grenada income tax due to the territorial tax structure.

Key points: digital nomad & residency in Grenada

  1. Dedicated Digital Nomad Visa

    The Remote Employment Act 2021 created a specific visa for remote workers aged 18+. It is valid for one year and renewable once (maximum two years). Applicants must work for an employer or clients located outside Grenada.

  3. Application Process & Fees

    There is no online application portal; applications are submitted by mail to a Grenadian embassy or consulate. The fee is USD $1,500 for a solo applicant; USD $2,000 for an applicant plus up to three dependents, with USD $200 per additional dependent. Processing takes approximately 10 business days once documents are received.

  4. Tax Treatment

    Grenada operates a territorial tax system. Income sourced from outside Grenada, as is the case for digital nomad visa holders, is not subject to Grenada income tax, capital gains tax, wealth tax, or inheritance tax.

  5. Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Programme

    Administered by the Investment Migration Agency (IMA) under the Citizenship by Investment Act No. 15 of 2013, the CBI programme grants full citizenship via a non-refundable NTF donation (minimum USD $235,000) or an approved real estate investment (minimum USD $270,000, held for five years). There is no prior residency requirement.

  6. E-2 Treaty Investor Visa Access

    Grenada is one of few Caribbean nations party to a bilateral investment treaty with the United States. Grenadian citizens, including CBI recipients, are eligible to apply for the US E-2 Treaty Investor Visa, making the CBI programme particularly attractive for US market access.
