Greece is one of the most beautiful European countries, renowned for its rich history and culture, with Athens as its capital. The population of Greece is approximately 11 million people, making it a desirable destination, especially for retirees looking to spend quality time in a country that offers a distinct lifestyle.

In 2013, the Greek government launched the Golden Visa program in Greece, aimed at boosting the country’s economy. This program provides qualified investors and their families with the opportunity to obtain a renewable permanent residency in Greece for 5 years.

According to the Golden Visa regulations, investors interested in joining the program must invest in the real estate sector in Greece with a minimum amount of 500,000 EUR to qualify for residency. They are also required to maintain ownership of the purchased property to ensure the renewal of their residency. Additionally, there is an option to invest 250,000 EUR in specified areas in Athens and some Greek islands.

  • Freedom to travel among all Schengen Zone countries without the need for a visa.
  • The ability to include the spouse, children under 21, and parents in the residency application.
