Golden Visa Greece, Apartments Athens

The Golden Visa program has undergone significant changes (01.04.2024), including increased investment limits, effective from September 2024.

Tier 1 | 800,000 EUR: This is a real estate investment in the areas of Attica, Piraeus, Thessaloniki, Mykonos, Santorini,  and the islands, which have a population of more than 3,000 inhabitants.
Tier 2 | 400,000 EUR: This tier covers all other regions of Greece and establishes a more attainable entry point of 400,000 EUR.
The requirement for both tiers: Investment is to be made in a single property of at least 120 square meters. The investor can no longer buy 2 or three smaller properties that in total will grand him the Golden Visa.

A major reversal occurs not only in terms of the value limits of the properties to be offered, but also in special provisions for the characteristics that the properties offered (e.g. surface area) under the Golden Visa program.
In order to obtain the “golden passport”, investors will have to buy with 800,000 or 400,000 euros (depending on the region) a property that must also have a surface area of 120 square meters or larger.
