To qualify for the Greece Golden Visa, you must make a significant investment. This involves purchasing real estate worth at least €500,000, effective from May 2023. Alternatively, you can invest a minimum of €400,000 in government bonds or capital shares. This visa is valid for five years and can be perpetually renewed as long as the investment is maintained.

Applicants must fulfill several criteria to be eligible for the Golden Visa in Greece, including:

  • Being over the age of 18.
  • Holding a clean criminal record.
  • Demonstrating the financial capability to make the required investment.
  • Possessing valid medical insurance that covers the applicant and any family members.
  • Providing all necessary documents for the Greece Residency by Investment application.
  • Being a non-EU/EEA citizen.

The Golden Visa in Greece is initially valid for five years and can be renewed indefinitely every five years, provided the investment is maintained. There is no requirement to reside in Greece to renew the visa, making it effectively a permanent residence permit as long as the conditions are met. After seven years of continuous residency, you can apply for Greek citizenship.

No, proficiency in the Greek language is not required to qualify for the Golden Visa. However, if you plan to apply for Greek citizenship after seven years, you will need to pass Greek language and civic tests.

The Greek Golden Visa does not provide the right to work or take up employment in Greece. However, you can generate income by renting out your investment property or earning returns on other types of investments included in the Golden Visa scheme.

Investors in the Greece Golden Visa program are subject to taxation on any income generated within Greece, such as rental income from property. Non-residents are taxed only on their Greek-sourced income. It’s advisable to consult with a tax advisor to understand the full scope of your tax obligations.
