Hello,
I am a British woman with Caribbean descent. I fell in love with Grenada years ago and have the greatest desire to live there. I spent 3 months earlier this year to get a sample of Grenadian life and it is definitely what I want. My query is I have a Grenadian passport do I need any further documentation to live permanently there?
Also would it be best to have children here in the UK or Grenada in regards to citizenship.

If you have a valid grenadian passport, you have to be a citizen, presumably by being born there. If you are a citizen thats all you need to live work buy property etc, might need to get a card to work, but thats just a formality. A grenada birth certificate will prove citizenship. If you have kids in grenada, i know that getting them uk cirtizenship is doable but is a hassle i suspect, and may cost money. If they are born in the uk, they get british citizenship, and you just fill in the relevant form to give them grenadian citizenship (and pay about 60 pounds.)

Thank you for your answers Bob you've been very helpful. However I'm still slightly confused lol I have obtained my passport via descent. I don't have a Grenadian birth certificate only a British one.
So is there any extra documents I need to become a citizen? Or am I a dual citizen?

In order to get a passport you need to show a Gda birth certificate or a citizenship certificate, your parents may have got the citizenship for you?

Possibly the rules changed at some point in the past. If in doubt call Joscelyn Whiteman, the Grenadian high commissioner in London at present, he or one of his team can answer it definitively. If you have a valid Grenadian passport, chances are you are a Grenadian I strongly suspect.

Dual citizenship just means you have 2 citizenships, the countries probably don't know about each other's nationals and it's actually illegal in some places like the USA (for them in theory, but no one cares.)
