Greece Expands Golden Visa Investment Options to Attract More Investors

Earlier this week, the Greek government introduced new investment routes under its Golden Visa Programme, broadening the options for international investors seeking residency. This move aims to enhance Greece’s economic growth by encouraging foreign capital in key sectors. Coates Global ensures investors remain informed about these changes and how they impact residency planning.

New Investment Pathways Under Greece’s Golden Visa Programme

The updated framework introduces additional qualifying investments beyond real estate, including:

  • Technology and Innovation Investment – A minimum investment of €500,000 in Greek start-ups, research projects, or technology firms.
  • Green Energy and Sustainability Projects – A minimum contribution of €400,000 in renewable energy, infrastructure, and sustainable developments.
  • Cultural and Heritage Investment – A minimum investment of €250,000 in the acquisition and restoration of listed properties designated as cultural heritage sites, contributing to Greece’s historical preservation efforts.
  • Job Creation Through Business Investment – Entrepreneurs who establish or expand a business in Greece, creating at least 10 full-time jobs, will now qualify for the Golden Visa.
Advantages for Investors

These new investment options provide several strategic benefits:

  • Greater Flexibility – Investors can choose sectors beyond real estate that align with their interests and long-term financial goals.
  • Economic and Sustainable Impact – The new routes support technological advancement, environmental sustainability, and cultural preservation in Greece.
  • Access to Schengen Zone – Golden Visa holders continue to benefit from visa-free travel across 26 Schengen countries, as per the regulations in place at the time.
