Company setup

Domestic companies and IBCs are common in international structures.

BVI Business Companies (BVI BC) are the standard structure. Economic substance applies to relevant activities; UBO reporting is mandatory.

IKE (Private Company), EPE (LLC), and AE (Joint Stock Company) are common structures. Greek tax residency triggers worldwide income reporting; the non-dom regime may apply to eligible high-net-worth relocators.

Banking

Banking is selective. Bordercase coordinates banking introductions through current partners.

Banking access has tightened materially; EMIs are common supplements. Bordercase coordinates introductions for cross-border cases.

Personal banking for residents is well established; corporate banking depends on activity. Bordercase coordinates introductions for non-standard structures.

Family

CBI can include qualifying dependents.

Family inclusion follows the main route. International schools are limited.

Family reunification is supported on most routes. Schools (public, private, international, English-language) are available in major cities.
