The tax system is based on the principle of tax residency. Corporate taxation is triggered if a company is incorporated in the country or has many business or financial transactions conducted in Grenada. The income of individuals is subject to local taxes on a general basis, provided that they reside in the state for more than 183 days per year and receive payment from local sources.

A company in Grenada that is considered a resident pays these taxes:

Corporations formed under the International Companies Act are fully exempt from corporation tax on business outside the island's jurisdiction. An investor may establish a company in Grenada and apply for tax exemption for 20 years.

Resident individuals pay income tax in the amount of:

  • 10% if income is less than XCD 24,000 (about $9,000) ;
  • 30% - in other cases.
