Diplomatic/Official Visa

A Diplomatic or Official Visa is a specialized travel document issued by the Government of Grenada to foreign nationals traveling to the country for official purposes. This visa is typically granted to diplomats, government officials, and representatives of international organizations who are visiting Grenada on official state business. It serves as a mark of international courtesy and facilitates the entry of individuals who are performing duties on behalf of their home government or an recognized international body. The issuance of this visa reflects the diplomatic relations between Grenada and the applicant's home country and ensures that the holder is granted the appropriate privileges and courtesies during their stay in the nation.

To obtain a Diplomatic or Official Visa, the applicant must hold a valid passport with at least six months of remaining validity beyond their intended date of entry. The primary requirement for this visa is the submission of a formal Diplomatic Note from the applicant's government or the mission they represent, which clearly outlines the purpose and duration of the official visit. This visa is generally issued on a gratis (free) basis, acknowledging the official nature of the travel. Applicants should coordinate with the Grenadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the nearest Grenadian diplomatic mission well in advance of their travel to ensure all documentation is correctly processed and that the necessary diplomatic protocols are observed.
