Connecting through another country?
This page covers a direct flight to Grenada. If your route connects through a third country, that country may require its own transit visa — sometimes even for a short stop inside the airport between flights (a layover). Transit rules depend on your specific routing, so check the country you connect through separately, or analyse your full itinerary.
What to know before you go
Visa not required for Grenada
INFONo visa required for entry to Grenada. Stays of up to 3 months are permitted under the visa-waiver agreement.
CARICOM Skilled National route may apply — carry your Skills Certificate
INFOIf you qualify as a CARICOM Skilled National under one of the 15 approved categories, you can enter for an initial 6-month period with the right to work, with the stay becoming indefinite once immigration verifies your Certificate of Recognition of Caribbean Community Skills Qualification. The 15 categories are: University Graduates, Artistes, Musicians, Media Workers, Sportspersons, Nurses, Teachers, Artisans (CVQ Level II+), Holders of Associate Degrees, Domestic Workers, Agricultural Workers, Beauty Service Practitioners, Barbers, Private Security Officers, Aviation Personnel. If you hold a Skills Certificate, carry it (and any supporting qualification documents). Apply for the certificate in advance through the relevant ministry in your destination state if you don't have one yet.
CARICOM visitor entry — 6-month tourist stay, no visa
INFOYour SR CARICOM citizenship gives you up to 6 months of visitor entry to other CARICOM Member States without a visa. Bring a return/onward ticket (most non-BBC4 destinations require it) and a passport valid for the duration of your stay. To stay longer or work, see the Skilled National option above.
Check-in agents may not know CARICOM rights — carry documentation
WARNCARICOM free movement is your legal right, but airline check-in is the common failure point — agents are trained on standard visa rules, not regional treaties. Carry your CARICOM citizenship documentation and a printout (or open this Travel Brief on your phone) referencing the specific article — Article 45 of the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas for the general right of free movement, Article 46 for the Skilled National right, or the 2025-10-01 Enhanced Cooperation declaration for BBC4-internal travel.
Check your phone coverage abroad
INFOYou're travelling to Grenada (GD). Your home cellular plan may or may not include data abroad — check your carrier's international options before you fly. An eSIM is a low-commitment alternative if your plan doesn't cover the destination or charges high roaming rates.
US travel advisory: Grenada — Level 2 (Exercise Increased Caution)
INFOThe US State Department publishes these advisories for your route. Grenada: Level 2 — Exercise Increased Caution (as of 2026-01-05). Review the country page for the specific areas and risks flagged before you go. This is a US State Department safety perspective, not an entry or boarding rule — it doesn't affect whether you can board, only what to be aware of on the ground. Travellers from other countries should also check their own government's advisory.
Malaria-endemic destination: Suriname (SR)
INFOYour itinerary touches Suriname (SR), where malaria transmission occurs. Transmission is often region-limited within a country (e.g. coastal vs highland zones) and varies by season. Discuss prophylaxis with a travel medicine clinician — the right antimalarial depends on the specific region, your medical history, and any medications you take.
Bring proof you'll leave Grenada
INFOGrenada's entry rules ask for proof you'll leave the country, but visa-waiver / ETA travelers like you usually get waved through without check-in agents looking. Have a screenshot of your return flight (or any onward ticket) on your phone in case they do — answers the question instantly.
