Residency

Greek residency routes:

  • Golden Visa - property investment (thresholds vary by region, recently raised)
  • Digital Nomad Visa - remote workers
  • Financially Independent Person (FIP) - passive-income individuals
  • Employment routes

Each route has different residency-day and renewal requirements.

  • Standard work permits
  • Family routes including spouse, dependent children and parents under conditions
Company setup

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.

IBCs are common in international structures. Reporting and substance frameworks have tightened.

Banking

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

Banking is selective. KYC and source-of-funds documentation are central. Bordercase coordinates banking introductions.

Family

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

CBI applications can include qualifying dependents under conditions.
