The Greece Golden Visa Programme
Key benefits of the programme
Right of residence in Greece
Successful applicants gain the legal right to reside in Greece, with access to one of Europe’s most enviable combinations of climate, culture, and quality of life.
Visa-free travel throughout the Schengen Area
A Greek residence permit grants holders the freedom to travel across all 26 Schengen member states without the need for additional visas a significant practical advantage for internationally mobile individuals and families.
Family inclusion
The programme extends residency rights to the applicant’s immediate family, including spouses and dependent children under the age of 21, ensuring that the benefits of the visa are shared by the whole family.
Low investment threshold
With a minimum qualifying investment of €250,000 in Greek real estate, the Greece Golden Visa offers one of the most accessible entry points of any European residency programme while providing exposure to a property market with strong long-term fundamentals.
Double taxation treaty network
Greece maintains an extensive network of double taxation treaties with countries around the world. Depending on your country of residence and the duration of your stay in Greece, your global income may not be subject to Greek taxation. This allows you to continue operating internationally while potentially benefiting from significant tax efficiencies.
Taxation in Greece
Your tax position in Greece will depend on your country of origin, your residency status, and the length of time you spend in the country each year. For many Golden Visa holders who do not become tax residents, global income remains outside the scope of Greek taxation entirely.
For those who do choose to establish tax residency in Greece, the country offers a range of structured incentive programmes designed to attract foreign nationals including favourable flat-rate schemes for retirees, digital nomads, and high-net-worth individuals relocating from abroad.
Given the complexity of international tax planning, we strongly recommend consulting a certified financial advisor who specialises in Greek and cross-border taxation. Professional advice at this stage ensures that your tax strategy is optimised from the outset and that you take full advantage of the benefits available to you.
