Greece Golden Visa
GREECE GOLDEN VISA
Greece offers one of the most established residency-by-investment frameworks within the European Union.
For investors seeking access to the Schengen Area without immediate relocation pressure, Greece remains a structured and competitive option.
At SARDAG Law Firm, we provide advisory and coordination services in collaboration with licensed Greek professionals for residency-based investment solutions.

Investment Thresholds
Greece grants residency rights through qualifying real estate acquisition.
Investment thresholds vary depending on region and regulatory updates, with minimum levels structured according to location.
Premium zones typically require higher investment amounts, while certain regions maintain lower qualifying thresholds.
Accurate eligibility assessment must be conducted prior to acquisition.

Real Estate Market Positioning

Investment considerations include:

• Short-term vs long-term lease regulations

Pathway to Citizenship
Greek Golden Visa grants residency — not immediate citizenship.
Citizenship eligibility typically requires:
• Long-term physical residence
• Integration requirements
• Language proficiency
Therefore, Greece is primarily a residency mobility strategy.

Tax Considerations
Tax residency in Greece is separate from residency permit status.
Tax exposure depends on:
• Physical presence
• Center of economic interest
• Source of income
Structured tax advisory is recommended before establishing fiscal residency.
