Question 1

What is the Digital Nomad Visa?

Accepted Answer

Greece's Digital Nomad Visa is a residence permit that allows non-EU remote workers and freelancers to live in Greece while working for foreign employers or clients. It is valid for 2 years and can be renewed.

Question 2

What is the minimum income requirement?

Accepted Answer

Applicants must demonstrate a minimum monthly net income of €3,500 from foreign sources. This can come from employment, freelance work, or business profits.

Question 3

How long does the visa application take?

Accepted Answer

The visa application typically takes 2–4 months from submission to approval. We handle all document preparation and consulate correspondence to keep the process on track.

Question 4

Can my family join me?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your spouse and dependents can apply for dependent residence permits alongside your Digital Nomad Visa application. Family reunification is straightforward.

Question 5

Do I become a Greek tax resident?

Accepted Answer

If you spend more than 183 days per year in Greece, you will generally become a Greek tax resident. This is separate from the visa itself. We advise on the tax implications and available tax regimes for new residents.

Question 6

What about social security?

Accepted Answer

If you become a Greek tax resident, you may need to register with EFKA (Greek social security) unless you hold a valid A1 certificate from an EU country. We handle the registration and advise on the most cost-effective approach.

Question 7

Can EU citizens apply?

Accepted Answer

EU citizens already have freedom of movement and do not need a Digital Nomad Visa. However, they still need AFM (tax number) registration and may benefit from other tax regimes. Contact us for guidance.

Question 8

Do I need to speak Greek?

Accepted Answer

No. Our team handles all communication with Greek authorities on your behalf, and we operate in English, Greek, and German. You do not need to speak Greek for any part of the process.
