There are several options that you can choose from but the most popular one is obtaining a Greek residence permit by investment into real estate. The required investment amount is 250,000 euros, which is lower than in such European countries as Spain, Portugal, or Malta that also grant legal residence permits to foreign investors into real estate. In addition to that, family applications for legal residence in Greece by investment are accepted and the main applicant’s spouse, children and parents can also qualify for Greek residence with minimal additional investments. The residence permit issued on this scheme remains valid for five years.
