Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your Icelandic passport needs to be valid for the entire time you're in Grenada. No minimum validity beyond your departure date is required by Grenadian law, but airlines may check for at least 6 months validity — confirm with your carrier before flying. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Grenada | Immigration officers routinely ask for a return or onward ticket at the border. Have a printed or digital copy of your outbound flight booking ready — they check this before stamping you in. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Carry a printed or digital hotel reservation, hostel booking, or a letter of invitation from your host. Officers rarely ask for it, but having it avoids delays if they do. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Evidence of sufficient money for your stay | Immigration may ask to see cash, bank statements, or credit cards showing you can support yourself. No fixed minimum is published, but having at least $100 USD per day of stay is a safe benchmark. | Recommended |
No visa needed, but be prepared
You don't need to apply for anything before you go. Just show up with a valid passport and a return ticket. Immigration is straightforward at Maurice Bishop Airport.
Overstaying is costly
The 90-day stay is not extendable. Overstay and you risk a fine of up to $500 and a possible ban from re-entering. Set a reminder to leave on time.
What happens at the border

Arrive at Maurice Bishop International Airport (GND)
After landing, follow signs to 'Immigration'. There's usually one queue for all non-citizens. Have your passport and return ticket ready.
