Greece Golden Visa
The Greece Golden Visa is a residency-by-investment program that allows non-EU citizens to obtain Greek residency by investing in real estate or other assets in Greece.
The Greece Golden Visa Program is considered one of the most affordable residence by investment programs that provide access to Europe. Successful applicants and their families are able to benefit from visa-free access to Europe’s Schengen Area within three–four months of applying.
Golden Visa Greece Benefits
The Greece Golden Visa Program is considered one of the most affordable residence by investment programs that provide access to Europe. Successful applicants and their families are able to benefit from visa-free access to Europe’s Schengen Area within three–four months of applying.
Visa-free travel within Europe’s Schengen Area
A soon as the permanent residence permit is issued, investors and their families have the option to live in Greece and travel freely to any other European Schengen country if they wish to do so. This freedom of choice and movement makes the Golden Visa program an exceptionally powerful and useful tool when building one’s future.
Unlimited expiry date of residence permit
By the time your Golden visa application will be approved by the authorities, then you’ll be issued a Golden Visa Residence Card.
Every five years, you can apply to renew your Golden Visa residence card, making it easy to access permanent residence.
A Greek Golden visa may be renewed indefinitely, as long as the investor keeps the investment.
Opportunity to rent out the investment property
Ability to hold shares and receive income from the dividends of a company registered in Greece (but not to be employed in Greece).
No requirement to reside in Greece
Contrary to other countries’ requirements, staying in Greece is entirely optional with no obligation of visiting after issuing a Golden Visa.
Eligibility to apply for citizenship after seven years of residence
Living there for seven years and paying taxes would make you eligible to apply for citizenship and a Greek passport.
The Double Taxation Treaty.
Depending on your country of residence and the amount of time you spend in Greece, it is likely that your international income may not be subject to taxation in Greece. In that case, you may maintain your business activities outside of Greece and enjoy some tax benefits. Greece also provides tax benefits to foreigners living in the country as tax residents. There are different incentive programs for retirees, digital nomads, and other particular expat segments. Make sure and check with your certified financial advisor to see if you can benefit from any of these incentives.
Residence permits can be acquired within 90–120 days
The Greece Golden Visa typically takes 3 to 5 months to process, but the exact timeline may vary depending on various factors.
Residence applicable to the whole family (married spouse, children under 21 years old, and parents of the main applicant and spouse)
The residence scheme allows you to include your spouse and children under the age of 21 in the program. This means that all these family members can also receive and enjoy all the benefits of a Golden Visa card. In addition to the other Golden Visa programs, the Greek program provides an Extended Family benefit. This means that the principal applicant’s parents and parents-in-law can also receive cards without any further requirements.
Once permanent residency is established for the investors and their families, children gain immediate access to European education- from International schools to European universities.
Low Investment Threshold in a Promising Real Estate Market
Among the Golden Visa programs in Europe, Greece has the lowest investment threshold. You can invest as low as €250,000 in Greek real estate in order to qualify for the program except in municipalities in Athens, Thessaloniki, Mykonos, and Santorini. In these specific areas, the minimum investment threshold is €500,000 since July 31st, 2023.
The Greek property market took a big hit in the 2008 financial crisis and suffered for more than a decade. As of 2023, the Greek real estate market is adjusting in an upward trend.
Greece: A Beautiful Place to... Invest!
To choose Greece is to choose an exciting country, in the south east Coast of Europe, to invest and buy high quality services and products. It is also the choice for a privileged, geographically strategic location, ideal for those seeking to supply the European market or expand their businesses to other parts of the world. As a member of the EU and the Eurozone, Greece offers access to high-growth and emerging regional markets, being an excellent gateway -without any trade barriers- to more than 140 million consumers in Southeast Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean.
The Golden Visa Programme is primarily an investment opportunity; therefore, the fast return on investment is high on the performance indicators’ list. The favourable terms of the scheme combined with the fast-growing Greek economy indexes, provide a promising context for a quick and reliable return on investment as well as lucrative options to re-sell at a higher price in the future. This is due to the Greek Economy currently bouncing back from a 10-year recession.
