New ePassport System

The Consulate of Grenada, Washington, DC wishes to inform all Grenadian Nationals that the Government of Grenada, Carriacou & Petite Martinique will be transitioning to the new ePassport effective 16th July 2018.  A Caribbean Community Grenada Passport issued under the Passports (Fees) Regulations, Chapter 226 prior to 16th July 2018 shall continue to be valid pursuant to the provisions of these Regulations until the date of expiration of the passport, unless cancelled or withdrawn in accordance with section 3 of the Passports Act, Chapter 226.

As of close of business 6th July 2018 processing of Grenada passports has been temporarily suspended to allow for the transition at the Immigration and Passport Department in Grenada.  Passports received after this date will be subject to the new rules, regulations and fees of the new ePassport system.

During the week 9th– 13th July 2018 passport applications will not be processed at the Immigration and Passport Department in Grenada, as the new systems are put in place.  Any passport application received at the following locations will be held and forwarded to Grenada during the week of 16th July 2018:

  1. Consulate of Grenada, Washington, DC
  2. Consulate General of Grenada – New York, and
  3. Consulate General of Grenada – Miami

In 2023, all passports issued by the Immigration and Passport Department in Grenada will be machine-readable ePassports – a biometric/digital passport, enhanced with an embedded electronic microprocessor, which is distinguished by a logo on the front cover.  This microprocessor will be used to obtain data that will authenticate the identity of the passport holder for security purposes and ease of travel.

The new fee for the ePassports within the United States will be US$175.00.  The fee for Lost/Stolen/Damaged passports within the United States will be US$350.00.

The Consulate of Grenada, Washington, DC apologises for any inconvenience that may be caused during this transition period and looks forward to working with the Diaspora to meet your needs once the new ePassport system is in place.
