Overview

Обзор

Greece's Golden Visa programme (Άδεια Διαμονής για Επενδύσεις) has become one of Europe's most popular residency investment pathways, offering full Greek and Schengen residency from an investment of €250,000 — one of the lowest thresholds of any EU programme.

Successful applicants and their families receive a 5-year renewable Greek residency permit, full Schengen zone access, and eligibility for Greek citizenship after 7 years of legal residency. The programme has no minimum stay requirement and has attracted over 30,000 investors and their families since its launch in 2013.
