The American's Guide to the Greece Golden Visa Process
Get your Greece Golden Visa with a €250K investment - step-by-step guidance from consultation to residency, renewal, and eventual citizenship eligibility.
The Greece Golden Visa program provides a fast, affordable, and flexible way to gain European residency while investing in real estate or other qualifying assets. With a minimum investment starting at €250,000, successful applicants and their families gain access to a range of benefits.
Step 1
Following an initial consultation and due diligence screening, we will provide you with a Client Engagement Agreement document for review and signature. Upon receiving the signed agreement and retainer payment, our legal partners will complete all the necessary government forms and supporting documents.
Step 2
The applicant may visit Greece and complete relevant paperwork with our legal partners in Athens. The applicant may also view and inspect investment options. Our legal partners will assist the applicant in obtaining a taxpayer identification number and opening a bank account.
Step 3
The applicant, with assistance from our team of experts, will finalize the investment purchase and application package. This includes proof of investment, proof of health insurance coverage, and proof of a clean criminal background check.
Step 4
Submit biometric data to the Greek authorities for issuance of Residence Card.
Step 5
Obtain approval from the Greek authorities.
Step 6
After a five year period, the Golden Visa residence permit must be renewed. Our team will assist you with the renewal process. The residence permit may be renewed indefinitely as long as the investment is maintained.
Step 7
The applicant may apply for Greek citizenship following a period of 7 years of tax residence (183+ days per year spent in Greece). The applicant must also demonstrate moderate proficiency in the Greek language and knowledge of Greek history and culture.
Current estimates of the duration of the process, from initial consultation to Golden Visa approval, range from 10 months to two years, depending on the complexity of the case.
