How to become a Digital Nomad in Greece
To qualify for a Digital Nomad Visa, you should:
- Be self-employed registered abroad, or a salaried employee working remotely for an employer outside Greece.
You only need to apply for a Digital Nomad Visa at the Greek consular authority in your country of residence, by email or registered mail. Once approved, your residence permit is issued by the Greek Ministry of Migration and Asylum.
If you are an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen, you do not need to apply for a Visa. You already have the right to enter and move freely within Greece.
How you benefit as a Digital Nomad
Once you get your Digital Nomad Visa, you can work remotely from Greece, while enjoying the Greek quality of life.
Under the Digital Nomad status, you:
- Get a 2-year residence permit in Greece, with the option to renew it for every 2 years, as long as you keep meeting the eligibility criteria.
- Get residence permits for your entire family, as long as you meet the higher minimum income criterion of €3,500 (+20% for spouse and +15% for each child).
- Pay no taxes to the Greek State, if you stay in Greece for less than 183 days per year.
However, the Digital Nomad Visa does not provide you with the right to work for a Greek employer or start a business in Greece.
