Frequently asked questions
No. There is no visa-on-arrival for Algerian nationals. You must obtain a visa from a Grenadian embassy or consulate before you travel.
Processing typically takes 2–4 weeks, but can vary. Apply at least 6–8 weeks before your planned departure to be safe.
You need to apply at a Grenadian diplomatic mission. The nearest ones are in London (UK), Ottawa (Canada), and Washington, D.C. (USA). If you're not near any, you may need to mail your application or use a visa service — check with the embassy first.
You'll need a passport valid for 6+ months, completed application form, 2 passport-sized photos, flight itinerary, hotel booking, proof of sufficient funds (bank statements), and a return ticket. Some embassies may also ask for a letter of employment or invitation.
Fees vary by embassy. Expect around $50–100 USD for a single-entry visa. Check the specific embassy's website for exact amounts.
Extensions are not available for visa holders. You must leave before your visa expires. Overstaying can result in fines or deportation.
If you are arriving from a country with yellow fever risk (including parts of Africa and South America), you need a yellow fever vaccination certificate. Algeria is not a yellow fever country, but if you transit through one, you'll need the shot. Check current requirements before travel.
