What is a Golden Visa
Many countries offer Residency by Investment (RBI) schemes as an incentive to attract foreign investment from foreign nationals.
These are known as "Golden Visas" and provide residency rights, with usually low stay requirements, to investors in exchange for specific investments in real estate or financial instruments.
Greece offers such option to Non-EU nationals, among other EU countries.
Golden Visa in Greece
Applications for Greek residence must include completed application forms and should be accompanied by the appropriate fees and supporting documents. Golden Residence visas obtained are valid for 10 years and can be renewed thereafter. Residing outside the Greek does not nullify the visa.
Golden Visa in Greece
The Greek Golden Visa Law came into force in July 2013. It offers the most affordable and flexible option for residency by investment in Europe. It gives you the option of investing:
Either Of These Options Gets You
Permanent residence permit in Greece
No minimum stay or visit requirement
Visa-free movement in more than 30 European countries
Residency for 3 generations of investors
Lifetime renewals provided you maintain the investment
