GREECE PERMANENT RESIDENCE PERMIT FOR INVESTORS PROGRAM
ABOUT GREECE
Greece is considered the cradle of Western civilization, the birthplace of democracy, Western philosophy, literature, historiography, political science, Olympic Games and so on. It is a developed country with an advanced high-income economy, a high quality of life and low cost of living. The country’s crime rate is among the lowest of all European countries. Greece also has great weather with an abundance of sunshine almost throughout the year, which is one of the reasons why it’s been a leading tourist attraction.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
As of 2013, non-EU nationals and their family members are entitled to a residence permit when investing in a property with the value of €250,000 or more for either new or second hand property, commercial or residential.
The program was recently renamed to “Permanent residence permit for investors“ and added some changes to attract more potential investors. Investors are now able to bring with them not only their spouse and children, but also their parents. This right will be also given to the parents of the wife or husband, who is not included in the purchase contract.
