HomeGreece: new rules for obtaining a Golden visa and top 3 properties

Greece has increased the minimum amount of investment in real estate for obtaining a Golden Visa from €250,000 to €500,000 for some regions:

areas of the Northern, Central and Southern sectors of Athens
Vari-Voula-Vouliagmeni Municipality in Attica
several municipalities of the city of Thessaloniki
Santorini and Mykonos Islands

For the rest of the regions, the required amount remains unchanged (€250,000).

However, it is still possible to get a Golden Visa for Greece for investments from €250,000 in areas for which the minimum entry threshold for the program has been increased. To do this, it is necessary to conclude a preliminary contract by April 30, 2023 and deposit a prepayment of 10% of the real estate value to the seller’s account.

We remind you that the Greek Golden Visa program for citizens of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus has been suspended. How to get a residence permit in Greece in this case?

There are three options available:

You already have an alternative citizenship and you are applying for a Golden Visa of Greece using the passport of this country
Obtaining investment citizenship of Turkey and obtaining a Golden visa of Greece for a Turkish passport
Registration of a residence permit in Greece for digital nomads
