You have the opportunity to get Grenadian citizenship by applying for an investment programme. If you are thinking, ‘Why Grenada?’, here are a few reasons why acquiring Grenadian citizenship might be wonderful for you and your loved ones.
Why you should Get Grenadian Citizenship
- You will get visa-free travels to over 140 countries including all countries of the European Union, United Kingdom, Singapore, Russia and China.
- You will be exempt from any U.S. travel ban restricting Nigerians from travelling there.
- The money you invest to acquire citizenship in Grenada will yield profitable returns, thereby protecting you from the continued depreciation of the Naira.
- You are not required to live in Grenada, so you could stay in any country of your choosing (for instance, you could stay back in Nigeria) and still have your Grenadian passport whenever you need it.
- Grenada has a visa treaty agreement with the U.S. which many other countries like Nigeria don’t have. As a Grenadian citizen, you will easily be able to apply for an E-2 Visa in the U.S., which is significantly quicker and cheaper than the EB-5 alternative you can apply for as a Nigerian.
- As a Grenadian citizen, you will be able to access Grenada’s more advanced medical service for yourself and your family.
- Your Grenadian citizenship will be passed on to your children and future descendants, granting them a second home and freeing them from the bondage of being forced to remain in a particular African country even when it has no plans for them.
What are the Requirements?
There are two ways to qualify for Grenadian Citizenship by Investment. You can either donate $150,000 to the Government of Grenada or pay at least $220,000 for a real-estate investment. If you are moving with your family, you will have to pay additional fees depending on the size.
If you invest in a real-estate business, you will be able to process your visa. The visa process typically takes between 3-5 months. You do not have to move to Grenada to complete your application; you can finish it all in Nigeria and have your passport delivered to you.
Furthermore, the law demands that you hold the investment you have acquired for up to five years, after which you are at liberty to sell it.
How to Apply
An immigration service firm will help you start your application. There are multiple legitimate, reliable firms, both foreign and local, that you can choose from. You can contact Optiva Capital Partners (call +234 811 570 5056) if you would like a local firm. If a foreign firm is more in your preference, you can contact La Vida Golden Visas or Passport Legacy.
