AI regulation in Grenada (2026)

Grenada shaded by its artificial intelligence status

Grenada has enacted no dedicated national AI legislation and has no formal proposal before parliament for one. The country relies on regional voluntary instruments — the UNESCO Caribbean AI Policy Roadmap and the Caribbean Telecommunications Union (CTU) Caribbean AI Task Force interim report — while the 2023 Data Protection Act supplies the closest domestic legal layer relevant to AI through personal-data rules. Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell has publicly championed AI investment and a harmonised Caribbean digital governance framework, but domestic AI-specific binding rules remain absent.

Key points

No national AI law

As of May 2026 Grenada has passed no standalone AI act, regulation, or executive order governing artificial intelligence. The DPO Caribbean registry of Caribbean AI laws and regulations lists no binding AI instrument for Grenada.

Data Protection Act 2023

Grenada's Data Protection Act No. 1 of 2023, fully in force from 1 January 2025, establishes personal-data processing principles and an Information Commission. While not AI-specific, it provides a foundational legal layer governing automated processing of personal data.

UNESCO Caribbean AI Policy Roadmap

Grenada is among the 20 English- and Dutch-speaking Caribbean countries covered by the UNESCO Caribbean AI Policy Roadmap (first published 2022, updated 2023–2024), a voluntary regional framework organised around four pillars: governance and transformation, culture and creativity, upskilling and education, and resiliency and sustainability.

CTU Caribbean AI Task Force (2025)

The Caribbean Telecommunications Union launched the Caribbean AI Task Force in July 2025 and issued an interim report in late 2025 calling for a harmonised, human-centric, rights-based CARICOM-wide AI governance framework. Grenada is a CTU member state and its government officials participate in regional CTU processes; a final report and Caribbean AI Forum are planned for 2026.

Government digital strategy and PM advocacy

Grenada's national ICT Division promotes digital transformation with AI listed among key enabling technologies, and Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell has publicly called on Caribbean governments and businesses to invest in AI and develop bold, shared AI governance policies — but these constitute political advocacy rather than binding regulation.

Parliamentary AI adoption (administrative, not regulatory)

In November 2024 Grenada's Parliament Speaker announced plans to procure and deploy AI tools within parliament during 2025, reflecting administrative adoption of AI rather than legislative regulation of it.
