It was introduced in 2021 and is designed for professionals with a net income of at least \u20ac3,500 per month.<\/p><p>The programme has two stages: first you obtain a national (type D) visa valid for up to 12 months from a Greek consulate, then you apply in Greece for a residence permit valid for 2 years. As long as the conditions are met, the permit can be renewed for further 2-year periods. The general rule for Greek citizenship is 7 years of legal residence; how time on a digital nomad permit counts towards long-term residence and citizenship should be checked case by case. If you want a renewable 5-year residence permit without any work requirement, the <a href=\"https:\/\/goldenvisasolutions.com\/en\/golden-visa-countries\/greece-golden-visa\">Greece Golden Visa<\/a> is a better fit.<\/p><h2><b>Can Your Family Join You?<\/b><\/h2><p>Yes. To include your family, your income must be higher: the requirement increases by 20% for a spouse or partner and by 15% for each child. A family with a spouse and two children therefore needs a net monthly income of at least \u20ac5,250. Your spouse\u2019s income cannot be added to yours to reach this amount; the main applicant must meet the income requirement alone.<\/p><h2><b>Greece Digital Nomad Visa Requirements<\/b><\/h2><ul><li><b>Income:<\/b> a net income (after tax) of at least \u20ac3,500 per month from remote work.<\/li><li><b>Employer or clients abroad:<\/b> your employer or clients must be outside Greece, and you must declare that you will not work for Greek companies.<\/li><li><b>Remote work:<\/b> employees need a letter from their employer confirming that the job can be done remotely from Greece; business owners must prove that their company is registered outside Greece and has ongoing contracts with foreign clients.<\/li><li><b>Health insurance:<\/b> comprehensive health insurance valid in Greece.<\/li><li><b>Accommodation:<\/b> proof of accommodation in Greece.<\/li><\/ul><p>Spending more than 183 days in Greece in any 12-month period can make you a Greek tax resident, so we recommend planning your tax position with an accountant before you apply.<\/p><h2><b>Required Documents<\/b><\/h2><ul><li>Proof of income (payslips, invoices, bank statements)<\/li><li>Proof of remote work (employer letter or service contracts)<\/li><li>Signed declaration that you will not work for Greek companies<\/li><li>Valid passport (at least 6 months beyond your stay, with 2 blank pages, issued in the last 10 years)<\/li><li>Criminal record certificate<\/li><li>Medical certificate<\/li><li>Health insurance policy<\/li><li>Proof of accommodation (a short booking for the visa stage; a registered lease of at least 6\u201312 months or a title deed for the residence permit)<\/li><li>Civil status documents for family members (marriage and birth certificates)<\/li><li>Two recent biometric photos<\/li><\/ul><p>Official documents must be apostilled and translated into Greek or English by a sworn translator. Requirements can vary with your work and family situation, so we recommend working with an immigration lawyer.<\/p><h2><b>How to Apply for the Greece Digital Nomad Visa<\/b><\/h2><p>Applicants used to be able to apply from inside Greece. Law 5275\/2026, published in the Greek Government Gazette on 6 February 2026, removed the in-country first-application route. The first application must now be made at the Greek consulate responsible for your place of residence; it is no longer possible to enter Greece as a tourist and apply for a digital nomad residence permit there.<\/p><ol><li>Prepare and apostille your documents and have them translated.<\/li><li>Book an appointment for a type D national visa (digital nomad) at the Greek consulate. An interview is held, and the consulate decides within 90 days at the latest.<\/li><li>After entering Greece, obtain a Greek tax number (AFM) and apply for the 2-year residence permit.<\/li><\/ol><h2><b>Benefits of the Greece Digital Nomad Visa<\/b><\/h2><ul><li><b>Family:<\/b> your spouse and children can join you.<\/li><li><b>Schengen travel:<\/b> you can travel to the other Schengen countries without a visa for up to 90 days in any 180-day period.<\/li><li><b>Tax:<\/b> Greece offers a 50% income tax reduction for 7 years to people who move their tax residence to Greece (Article 5C). It is not granted automatically to digital nomad visa holders; it has separate conditions and requires a separate application. Which country taxes your income depends on your situation and the applicable double tax treaty.<\/li><li><b>Lifestyle:<\/b> you can work from anywhere in Greece, from Athens to a quiet Aegean island, and join a growing international community.<\/li><\/ul><p>If you live on passive income rather than remote work, see our <a href=\"https:\/\/goldenvisasolutions.com\/en\/greece-fip-visa-financially-independent-person\">Greece FIP (passive income) visa<\/a> guide.
