Frequently asked questions
No. There is no visa-on-arrival for Vietnamese citizens. You must obtain a visa from a Grenadian embassy or consulate before you travel.
Processing typically takes 2–4 weeks, but it can vary. Apply at least 4–6 weeks before your planned departure to be safe.
Visa fees vary by embassy and type of visa. Check with the specific Grenadian embassy or consulate where you apply. Expect to pay around $50–100 USD, but confirm directly.
If you are transiting and will not leave the international transit area, you generally do not need a visa. However, if you need to clear immigration (e.g., to change airports or stay overnight), you will need a visa. Confirm with your airline.
Extensions are possible but not guaranteed. You must apply to the Grenada Immigration Department before your current visa expires. There is a fee, and approval is at their discretion.
Typically: a completed application form, passport valid for 6+ months, passport-sized photos, flight itinerary, hotel booking or invitation letter, proof of sufficient funds, and travel insurance. Check with the embassy for the exact list.
Grenada does not have an embassy in Vietnam. You may need to apply through the Grenadian embassy in a neighboring country (e.g., Malaysia, Japan, or the UK) or through a consulate that handles Grenada visas. Contact the nearest one for instructions.
