Arrive at Maurice Bishop International Airport (GND)
After landing, follow signs to 'Immigration'. There's usually one queue for all foreign visitors. Have your passport and return ticket ready.

Present documents to immigration officer
Hand over your passport and any requested documents. The officer will ask about the purpose of your visit and how long you're staying. Answer clearly and briefly.

Get your entry stamp
The officer stamps your passport with the date of entry and the allowed stay (up to 90 days). Check the stamp before walking away — confirm the dates are correct.
