Our Process
Submit application. Greek authorities issue a receipt of application, which may be used as a temporary permit prior to residency being granted.
We review your application for compliance and verify the investment threshold before submitting it to the Ministry, which conducts due diligence and issues a receipt serving as a temporary residence permit during processing.
Once the application is approved by the Secretary-General, you will receive a five-year residence permit for living in Greece and visa-free Schengen travel, after completing necessary contributions and government fees, followed by residency certificates for you and your family.
Citizenship may be applied for after seven years of residency.
