Non-EU citizens and their family members can obtain permanent residency in Greece by investing at least €250,000 in real estate. This program, which began in 2014, offers one of the lowest investment thresholds among similar programs, granting permanent residency permits. As of September 1, 2024, the Greek government has introduced new changes to the Golden Visa law for property acquisition, and the content on this page reflects these latest amendments.
