The Greek Golden Visa program springs from ar. 20 of Law 4251/2014 which constitutes the right of a non-EU citizen to apply for a permanent residence permit in Greece, and therefore have the right to travel in the Schengen zone countries. Additionally, one that has successfully been given a permanent resident status in Greece, can, in 7 years time, if consecutively living within the greek borders, aquire a greek citizenship, hence an EU-passport.
In order to be granted a Golden Visa one must make a minimum investment of 250.000 euros in a real estate property of their liking, have an insurance contract from a private insurance body, as provided by the legislation in force, which shall cover all health and safety risks and the size of the benefits financed and a valid passport or travel document recognised by the greek government.
The Greek Golden Visa Program offers the grantee the opportunity to facilitate a permanent stay for his/her immediate family, which includes his/her spouse, dependent children under 24 years old and even their parents/grandparents, which all shall enjoy the benefits of permanent residence and the greek healthcare and educational system, as long as the purchased real estate property remains under their ownership.
