GREECE Residency by Investment & Long-Term Positioning

The most recognized pathway is the Residence by Investment Program (Golden Visa), which grants renewable residence permits to qualifying investors and their family members. 

Greek Residency Framework

Greece offers structured residence pathways for non-EU nationals, most notably through investment.


The Greek Golden Visa program provides renewable residence permits to qualifying investors and their eligible family members.


Residence status does not automatically grant citizenship but may contribute toward long-term eligibility under naturalization provisions.


IMCA provides structured investment evaluation and documentation oversight in coordination with licensed Greek professionals.
