Guide last updated October 1, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for the duration of your stay (valid at time of entry; a passport with at least 6 months validity is recommended for airline check-in purposes)
  • No visa application form needed
  • Proof of onward or return travel ticket
  • Proof of accommodation (hotel booking or host address)
  • Sufficient funds for your stay (not routinely checked but may be asked)
  • No biometrics collected for visa-free entry
  • Travel health insurance recommended though not mandatory

Visa types

  • No visa needed for tourism or short business visits under the visa-free arrangement
  • Stays over 90 days or paid local employment require a work permit or extended stay authorization from the Ministry of National Security
  • Grenada also offers a Citizenship by Investment program for those seeking long-term residence or a second passport, which is a separate process from tourist entry

Entry conditions

  • US citizens may stay visa-free for up to 90 days per visit
  • No fee is charged for visa-free entry
  • Entry is via Maurice Bishop International Airport or any designated port of entry
  • Engaging in paid work for a Grenadian employer is not permitted under this entry status
  • Extensions beyond 90 days can be requested at the Immigration Department in St. George's before the initial period expires, typically granted in 30-day increments

Fees & processing time

  • No visa fee for entry stays under 90 days
  • Processing: immediate at the airport or port of entry
  • Extension fee at the Immigration Department: approx. USD 75-100 per 30-day extension
  • Extension processing: typically same-day to a few business days

Tips for United States travelers

  • Carry proof of your return flight, as airlines and immigration may request it before boarding or on arrival
  • Common delay reason: incomplete accommodation details on the arrival card
  • If you plan to stay longer than 90 days, start the extension process at the Immigration Department well before your entry stamp expires
  • Grenada's hurricane season (June-November) can affect flight schedules, so build buffer time into return travel plans
  • Keep a digital and physical copy of your passport in case of loss, as replacement through the US Embassy in Barbados (which covers Grenada) can take time
