250.000 €

Ακίνητο με αλλαγή χρήσης ή διατηρητέο

Οπουδήποτε, χωρίς ελάχιστο εμβαδόν: ακίνητο που μετατρέπεται σε κατοικία βάσει πράξης αδειοδότησης που εκδόθηκε από 5 Απριλίου 2024 και μετά, με τη μετατροπή ολοκληρωμένη πριν από την αίτηση, ή διατηρητέο κτίριο. Διαφορετικά 400.000 € ή 800.000 €, ανάλογα με την περιοχή, για ένα ακίνητο τουλάχιστον 120 m². Το πλήρες τίμημα καταβάλλεται πριν από την αίτηση, και αποφασίζουν οι ελληνικές αρχές.

Οι τέσσερις ελληνικές κατηγορίες

• 250.000 €Shares or bonds of a start-up registered on Elevate Greece (a stake of at most one third; at least 2 jobs kept for 5 years) Μη επιβεβαιωμένο

Άδεια διαμονής επενδυτή: 5 έτη, ανανεώσιμη όσο διατηρείται η επένδυση

Χωρίς δικαίωμα εργασίας.

Καμία· οι απουσίες δεν εμποδίζουν την ανανέωση

Ο/η σύζυγος ή ο καταχωρισμένος σύντροφος, τα παιδιά κάτω των 21 και οι γονείς και των δύο συζύγων

Μόνιμη διαμονή

The permit renews without limit while the investment is held. EU long-term resident status needs 5 years of continuous lawful residence; whether years on this permit count without living in Greece is unsettled.

Ιθαγένεια

Naturalisation after 7 years of lawful and permanent residence, integration and an exam; years spent living abroad are unlikely to count. Greece has no citizenship by investment.

Χωρίς κατηγορία ακινήτου

Closed with all the investor routes, including the former property route.

None: every investor route closed.

No new permits. Existing permits keep their validity, and renewals follow the rules in force when the permit was first granted.
