Greece Digital Nomad Visa: Application Process

Step by step through the Greece Digital Nomad Visa application, from first document to approval.

Verified Aug 2026 · Greece's Law 4825/2021, Law 5275/2026, and Article 5C of the Income Tax Code (Law 4172/2013)
  1. Apply at a Greek consulate for the initial visa, then convert to a residence permit after arrival if staying beyond the visa's initial window.
  2. Submit income and standard documentation.
  3. Consulate processing commonly takes around 30 days, plus additional time for permit issuance after arrival. Total fees run roughly €1,000-1,200 (€75 consular visa fee + a €1,000 residence permit fee) — notably the highest residence-permit fee among EU nomad visa programs, and one that applies again in full at renewal, not just on first application.
