Live, work and Invest in Greece.
What are the eligibility requirements?
To qualify for the Greek Golden Visa, applicants must invest a minimum of €250,000 in real estate property in Greece. Other investment options are also available.
Applicants must provide a clean criminal record certificate from their home country or from any country they have lived in for the past five years, ensuring they meet security and legal standards.
Applicants must provide proof of valid health insurance coverage in Greece, either through private insurance or the Greek public health system, if eligible.
Applicants need to show the source of funds for the investment, ensuring that the funds are legal and traceable. This is required for anti-money laundering and financial regulation compliance.
Unlike many other residency programs, the Greek Golden Visa does not impose a minimum stay requirement, although to maintain residency, the applicant must visit Greece at least once every five years.
The program allows for the inclusion of immediate family members, including spouses, children under 21 (or older if still financially dependent), and parents of the main applicant and their spouse.

Holders of the Greek Golden Visa enjoy visa-free travel across the Schengen Area, allowing unrestricted access to 26 European countries for business or leisure.
The Golden Visa provides a pathway to permanent residency after five years, and citizenship after seven years, provided you meet the necessary residency requirements.
The Greek Golden Visa offers a variety of investment opportunities, including real estate, government bonds, and business investments, allowing you to choose the best option that suits your financial goals.
Unlike other residency programs, the Greek Golden Visa does not require you to reside in Greece for a minimum number of days each year, giving you flexibility to live and work in other countries if desired.
As a resident, you and your family will gain access to Greece’s high-quality healthcare system and excellent educational institutions, which are recognised across Europe.
Greece offers favourable tax incentives for foreign residents, such as tax exemptions on foreign income for retirees and tax reductions on investment income, making it an attractive destination for financial planning.
