• Azerbaijan
• Belarus
• Bosnia & Herzegovina

Exempt from Visa Requirements Categories

When visiting Grenada, the following categories of the UN (United Nations) are exempt from visa requirements when visiting the country for up to 90 days. This also applies to their dependent relatives, spouses, and other household members, and includes visiting Grenada as a visitor or for official transit and business purposes. When accredited for placement in the Region at a UN Mission, persons involved must possess the relevant ID (identification) documents or relevant letters to identify themselves as UN agency personnel at ports of entry so they can remain in the country for as long as their accreditation will last. These persons are:

• Holders of UN laissez-passers
• UN-attached volunteers
• Individuals performing services on behalf of the United Nations.
• Individuals involved in any UN agency.
• Members of International Agencies, such as CARICOM, ACS, INTERPOL, and other duly recognised International Institutions.

Types of Grenada Visa

You can obtain either a Tourist or Business Visa. In the first case, your visit cannot exceed 90 days and includes visits for all personal purposes. In the latter case, business people visiting Grenada for work (i.e., representing their company in a meeting, finalising a deal with another company, etc.) must apply for a business visa. However, this does NOT give them the right to find a job in Grenada.

Grenada Visa Document Requirements

Besides a valid passport for at least 6 months beyond your stay in Grenada (always signed and original) with at least one blank page for a visa stamp or stamps (amendment pages do not count toward this requirements), you will also need the following documents to get a Grenada visa:

• A completed and signed Grenada visa application form for every single applicant.
• Two photographs measuring 4.5cm by 3.5cm (one of them should be notarised).
• US visa holders should staple their original I-20 or I-94 to their passports.
• Notarised copy of a US valid visa or permanent resident card (both sides).
• A receipt of payment for the visa-related fee (single entry visa or multiple entry visa).

For a Work Visa, you’ll need to add the following documents to those already mentioned above:

• A letter from your future employer. Make sure it has been properly addressed to the Grenada Labour Minister.
• A qualifications confirmation, such as a diploma.
• A reference from a past employer.
• No criminal record data.
• Data on the future and past employer.
• A no-tax-arrears statement for the last 12 months.

Note: Students that will be studying at a Grenada university for a period more prolonged than the established one, should receive a Grenada visa BEFORE they travel to the country. So, they must submit the relevant documents to the Grenada Consulate. The same goes for the individuals travelling to Grenada for business.

What to Expect After Applying for a Grenada Visa

Until a short while ago, you could easily apply for a Grenada visa via one of the available visa service providers. However, at the moment of this writing, you will need to either contact the nearest consulate or embassy in Grenada or submit your enquiry form to a visa consulate working with a visa service provider, who will guide you through the necessary steps to get a Grenada Visa.

As soon as you apply for a Grenada visa, the consulate will consider your application within 10 days. If it is approved, you can pick up your visa in person at the consulate. Alternatively, you can ask for it to be delivered through delivery. Ensure you have your application and passport with you (whichever way you have chosen to receive your visa) as you might be asked for these documents before getting your visa. This, of course, does not apply to the citizens of countries that are eligible for a Grenada visa on arrival.

Entering Grenada With Pets

If you will be visiting Grenada with your pet, you will need to make sure your pet has a valid certificate of health and a valid rabies vaccination. The first document is issued by a vet and must be no later than 14 days before your departure. In addition, an import permit is required for your pet. This is issued by the Grenada Veterinary Office of the Ministry of Agriculture. You can find the relevant application forms for the needed import permits at an embassy or a high commissions office.
