About this visa & living in Grenada

Grenada's Remote Employment Act Visa lets nomads spend up to a year on the 'Spice Isle', one of the Caribbean's most authentic and least-developed nations. Beaches, rainforest hikes and a small, friendly capital in St George's define the experience, and English is the official language. There is no local income tax on foreign earnings during the visa, making it a strong low-key alternative to better-known Caribbean nomad spots.
