Services
We offer a full range of services to ensure your Greece Golden Visa journey is as smooth and straightforward as possible. Our legal team is dedicated to guiding you through every step of the residency by investment process, from understanding eligibility to securing your residency and beyond.

Legal Skills on the Greece Golden Visa Programme
One of the most significant challenges many investors face is understanding the legal intricacies of the Greece Golden Visa programme. With our legal advisory, we provide clear, precise guidance on the eligibility requirements and investment pathways available. We focus on reducing your risk and ensuring that every step, from property selection to final approval, is handled with care. Whether you’re uncertain about the qualifying investments or the legal documents required, we ensure that all paperwork is accurate, complete, and submitted on time. We handle the entire process, from the initial consultation to the approval of your residency, providing you with peace of mind.

Overcoming Legal and Bureaucratic Hurdles
Greece’s residency by investment programme, like any immigration law process, can be bogged down by bureaucracy. One of the biggest frustrations is the complexity of dealing with multiple government bodies and agencies. Our legal team has the skills to manage this complexity and simplify the entire process for you. We ensure that you meet all the legal requirements, including proper documentation, due diligence checks, and investment compliance, making the process far less daunting. By proactively managing the legal aspects, we minimise delays and make sure that your application moves forward without unnecessary hindrances.
Property Investment Advisory for Golden Visa Qualification
The primary avenue for qualifying for Greece’s residency by investment is through real estate. But with the ever-changing property market, many investors struggle to identify the right properties to invest in. Our legal team is equipped with up-to-date market knowledge, enabling us to guide you to the best properties that meet the €250,000 investment threshold. We take into account your specific goals—whether you're investing for rental income, long-term appreciation, or to simply meet the visa requirement—and help you make an informed, strategic investment. We also handle the legal aspects of property purchase, ensuring all transactions are transparent and comply with Greek property law.

Helping You Understand Tax Implications
One of the primary benefits of Greece’s Golden Visa programme is the favourable tax regime, but understanding how it works can be tricky. Many investors fail to realise the full extent of the tax advantages available to them. Our legal advisors work with you to provide a clear overview of how Greek tax laws apply to your residency. Whether it’s understanding your tax residency status, capital gains tax, or other local taxation issues, we’ll ensure you fully understand the tax environment before making your investment.

Family Inclusion and Dependents
A key selling point of the Greece Golden Visa programme is that it allows you to include your immediate family members in the residency application. But what about extended family or dependents? Many investors are unsure about the specific requirements for bringing their loved ones into the programme. We clarify which family members qualify—spouses, children up to 21 years old, and even parents—and ensure that all necessary documentation is prepared for a successful family inclusion application. This allows you to keep your family together in Greece while securing your investment.
Assisting with Residency Applications and Permits
After you’ve made the qualifying investment, it’s time to submit your residency application. This process involves submitting a wide array of documents, including financial records, proof of investment, and personal identification. The paperwork can be overwhelming if you’re unfamiliar with the process. Our legal advisors assist you in completing the residency application forms, ensuring that everything is correctly filled out and submitted. We also track the status of your application and provide updates, ensuring that you’re always in the loop.

Citizenship Pathway: After the Golden Visa
Once you have obtained your Greece residency through investment, you may be thinking about the next step—Greek citizenship. After holding your residency for five years, you can apply for Greek citizenship, which grants you full EU rights. Our team provides you with a clear understanding of the citizenship application process, outlining the steps you need to take to qualify. We ensure that your residency remains in good standing and that you meet the criteria necessary to apply for citizenship when the time comes.

Post-Approval Legal Support
After you’ve received your residency by investment, our services don’t end there. We continue to provide ongoing legal support for any issues that may arise post-approval. Whether it’s assistance with renewing your residency, buying additional properties, or navigating Greece’s local laws, we’re here for you long after your residency has been granted.
