Online vs. plane customs form

flying into Grenada on Sunday! so obviously this is a government link: https://edcard.gov.gd/en but seeing a lot of people say you just fill out the form on the flight for customs. has anyone flown recently that has insight- should I do the online form or is it pointless?

If you do it online, you go through kiosks and are generally out quicker. The physical form line can be quite long and slow even with multiple officers working.

No brainer, do.the online form. You can fill it out 3.days in advance of travel.

I did it on the plane and it only took me maybe 20 minutes to get through customs.

Would definitely fill out the form ahead of time. I went to Grenada in May and the form was not distributed or even mentioned on the flight over. So upon landing there was a huge scrum to get the form and then very limited space to fill it out. There is like one small counter with two pens to be shared. Pure chaos.

good to know!! I assume it expedited this by a lot if you had already filled it out online

Went in July and filled it out prior to flying (day before), when we got there they ask if you already filled it out and fast track you through customs, remember, you do not pay for these, anywhere asking for money is scamming you

Fill out both and gauge which line is shorter upon arrival!

I was traveling with 3 generations of family (American) and a child. We did it online but the child’s online form was an issue, so we still had to speak to an agent but were able to skip the long line.

So this may be an issue if traveling with young ones.

You can do either. We filled ours out in advance through the link you shared, and did not also have to complete one on the plane. Easy!

Filled out the online form. Just about walked thru customs. He didn’t even scan the barcodes. Just waived us through. Last week.
