Eligibility
The main applicant must be at least 18 years of age, and eligible dependents include the spouse of the applicant, children under 21 years of age as well as parents of both the applicant and the spouse without any further conditions (unlike in many other programs). Only Non-EU Applicants may apply for this program and there are no restrictions to nationalities. Health insurance is required.
Benefits
Requires considerably low investment when compared to other programs. Applicants have a right to live in Greece and apply for the citizenship after 7 years of residence should they wish to do so and should they comply with the requirements. The main benefits of the program include the right to travel within the Schengen Area for 3 months within 6 months period. There are no minimum stay requirements to obtain the residency status. Real estate investment can be made anywhere in the country. There are no requirements for it to be a low-density vs. high-density area.
Minimum stay requirement
There are no minimum stay requirements to obtain the residency status. However, those willing to apply for the citizenship will be required to reside at least 183 days within a year for seven years as well as be a tax-paying resident in Greece.
Language test
Language test is not required when applying for Greece Golden Visa. However, should you wish to apply for the citizenship after 7 years of residency, you will be asked to sit for the Greek language test and to demonstrate your knowledge of the country.
Process
The process of becoming a resident under Greece Golden Visa program takes around 6-12 months. Residency cards renewed after 5 years. After 7 years of residency in Greece and complying with the requirements of the program one has a right to apply for the Greek citizenship, which is then subject to additional tests.
