The Greek Golden Visa Program, launched in 2013, offers a unique opportunity for non-EU citizens and their families to obtain a five-year residency by investing in real estate. Through this program, investors can secure a renewable Greek Residence Permit, allowing for extended stays in the country.
To qualify for this residency, the Greek government has established two distinct property investment categories for residential real estate, based on the location of the property. Making it one of the most accessible residency options in Europe.
The program not only allows investors to live in Greece but also provides the added benefit of visa-free travel within the Schengen Area, making it an attractive option for global citizens. Moreover, the Golden Visa offers a pathway to citizenship after seven years, provided that residency requirements are met.
