Greece Golden Visa Complete Guide: Requirements, Application and Benefits (2026)

The Greece Golden Visa grants EU residence to an entire family through a single property investment. 2026 tiers: €800k (Attica/Athens, Thessaloniki, Mykonos, Santorini, islands >3,100), €400k (elsewhere) — both a single home ≥120 m² — and €250k (restoration/commercial-to-residential conversions only). Coverage includes the investor, spouse, children under 21 (student extension to 24) and dependent parents on both sides — up to three generations on one investment. Steps: AFM tax number + Greek bank account, legal due diligence, notarial purchase and title registration, biometrics and residence application, then the 5-year card. Residence renews every 5 years while you hold the property and carries no minimum-stay; it is not automatic citizenship (typically 7 years' actual residence plus language/integration).
