The Investment Migration Agency (IMA) of Grenada says Nigeria accounted for the highest number of citizenship applications to the country in the fourth quarter of 2025.
According to the agency’s Q4 statistics, Nigerians made up 16 percent of all applications received year-to-date — the largest share among applicant countries.
China followed with 12 percent, Iraq with nine percent, the United States seven percent, and Pakistan five percent.
Egypt, India, Lebanon, Vietnam and Turkey each accounted for three percent of applications.
South Africa and Syria also recorded three percent each, while the United Kingdom (UK), Ukraine, Algeria, the Philippines, Myanmar and Uzbekistan made up two percent apiece.
Other countries collectively represented 19 percent of total applications.
In Q4 alone, the agency revealed that Grenada received 128 citizenship applications and processed 161. Of these, 154 were approved and seven denied.
The agency said 99 new citizens were granted citizenship in Q4, bringing the year-to-date total to 1,124.
The Caribbean country operates a citizenship-by-investment programme that allows foreign nationals to obtain citizenship through approved investments, including contributions to the National Transformation Fund or real estate projects.
Grenadian passport holders enjoy visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to over 140 countries, including the Schengen Area and the United Kingdom.
