Greece Residency by Investment for 2026 offers non-EU investors a structured route to long-term residency in an EU member state through qualifying investments. First launched to attract foreign capital, the program remains one of Europe’s most recognised residency-by-investment pathways. Investors may qualify through specialised real estate acquisitions from €250,000, standard property purchases from €400,000 or €800,000, depending on location and selected financial investment routes. Successful applicants receive a residence permit that is typically valid for five years and renewable, subject to maintaining the qualifying investment. The program is especially attractive for those seeking European mobility, access to Greece’s lifestyle and business environment and the ability to include eligible family members under one application framework.
Applies to qualifying commercial-to-residential conversions and certain listed or preservable building restoration projects. This special threshold is available regardless of location, provided all legal and technical requirements are fully met before the residence application is submitted.
For many parts of Greece, a standard real estate purchase generally starts from €400,000 and must usually relate to a single property meeting the applicable rules, including minimum size requirements in many cases. Prime zones may require a higher threshold.
Applies in premium locations including Athens, Thessaloniki and certain islands with larger populations. These investments are generally subject to stricter property conditions and are intended to regulate demand in high-pressure markets.
Applicants may qualify through selected regulated investment fund structures focused on Greek assets or the Greek market. This route is suited to investors seeking a more financial-market-oriented option rather than direct property ownership.
The Greece Golden Visa is typically processed within 3–4 months, subject to documentation and application review timelines.
Residency does not automatically grant citizenship. Applicants may apply for Greek citizenship after 7 years of legal residency, subject to language proficiency and integration.
The program focuses on residency-by-investment, not direct citizenship. It is designed to support long-term economic contribution and investment in Greece.
Engaging experienced advisors ensures smooth application handling, correct documentation and compliance with legal requirements.
