A LITTLE MORE CLARITY

Questions, answered.

The application, qualifying conditions and outcome for Greece. Choose a service to see its specific answers.

How can this route lead to permanent residence and citizenship?

Residence: Obtain the appropriate investor or financially independent residence permit and continue meeting its renewal conditions. Qualifying long-term status: Establish genuine residence and the residence title required for nationality. The investor permit is renewable every five years while the qualifying investment is retained. Greek citizenship · residence-based: The ordinary period is seven years of continuous legal residence for holders of qualifying titles, twelve years can apply to other titles. Greek-language, civic knowledge, economic and social integration and character are assessed. Golden Visa renewal without living in Greece does not meet the actual-residence conditions for naturalisation. Review the residence-title category before relying on the seven-year period.
