Citizenship·Closed·1997–2001

Economic citizenship (1997-2001)

Sells citizenship, and with it a passport.

Official name: Grenada Economic Citizenship Program (1997-2001)

Lowest price when it closed: US$39,000

Price on closure (suspended Nov 2001). Rests only on an industry blog ('The prices for Grenada passport was only $39,000 going back to 1997'), which puts the total including fees at $50,000; unverified, and who it covered is not stated. Treat as low reliability.

Notes from the research

Predecessor scheme; suspended indefinitely after 9/11 (UNGA statement Nov 2001). Launch 1997 per the US State Department (the 1997 Citizenship Amendment Act 'enables' purchase); an industry account says the Act made an existing scheme more attractive. Both accounts are on the timeline. Proposed as a separate program_id; merge into grd-cbi if the dataset prefers one id per jurisdiction.
