The Grenadian passport is a travel document issued to citizens of Grenada, in accordance with the Grenadian Citizenship Act of 1976 (Cap 54) and the Grenada Constitution, for the purpose of facilitating international travel. It allows the bearer to travel to foreign countries and the Commonwealth of Nations, in accordance with visa requirements, and facilitates the process of securing assistance from Grenadian consular officials abroad, if necessary.
A Grenadian passport is a document valid for proof of citizenship.[citation needed] The passport is also a CARICOM passport, as Grenada is a member of the Caribbean Community. There are three types of passport booklets: regular, service, and diplomatic. Despite the placement of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) logo at the top of the document's front cover, Grenadian passports are issued by the Immigration and Passport Department (an extension arm of the Royal Grenada Police Force) and at the diplomatic missions and honorary consulates of Grenada abroad.
