The Government of Canada\u00a0 is pleased to announce that Canadian officials will be in Grenada from Monday, November 6 to Wednesday, November 8, 2023, to carry out biometric processing for persons wishing to obtain visas.<\/p>\n

As part of the visa application process, nationals from Grenada must provide biometric information\u00a0 (fingerprints and a photo) when applying for a Canadian visitor visa, study, work, or temporary\u00a0 residence permit, or for permanent residence. During the upcoming November dates, visa\u00a0 applicants may take the opportunity to provide biometric information in Grenada rather than\u00a0 travelling abroad. Outside of this visit, standard procedures remain for Grenada nationals to travel\u00a0 to biometric collection points in Barbados, Saint Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, or Trinidad\u00a0 and Tobago.<\/p>\n

If you are planning to travel to Canada for study, business, tourism, family reunions or other\u00a0 reasons, please complete your online visa application as soon as possible in order to take\u00a0 advantage of this opportunity in November. This exercise is geared towards the following\u00a0 individuals:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Grenada nationals who anticipate travel to Canada;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n
    1. Persons who have already applied whether online or by mail for a visa, work or study\u00a0 permit or for permanent residence and have received their Biometric Instruction Letter;\u00a0 and,<\/li>\n
    2. Nationals of other biometric information-required countries residing in Grenada planning\u00a0 to travel to Canada.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      To book an appointment for biometric collection, please write to:\u00a0BDGTN VISA@international.gc.ca<\/p>\n

      Please note the cut-off date for scheduling an appointment is Tuesday, October 31, 2023, and\u00a0 there are a limited number of appointments available for the three-day collection visit.\u00a0 Appointments will be scheduled on a first come, first served basis. We will not be able to\u00a0 accommodate appointment requests after that date unless cancellations are received.<\/p>\n

      Canadian officials will be pleased to assist applicants who have appointments and the required\u00a0 Biometric Instruction Letter and passport in hand during the hours listed below. Officials will not\u00a0 be collecting applications or biometric information from applicants who have not received this\u00a0 letter.<\/p>\n

      The biometric collection will take place from 09:00 to 16:30 on Monday, November 6, and 08:30\u00a0 to 16:30 on Tuesday, November 7 and Wednesday, November 8, at the True Blue Bay Boutique Resort, Old Mill Road, True Blue Bay, St. George\u2019s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
