Recently, according to the latest requirements from the Shanghai Consulate, the main applicant must provide the following additional documents when signing a Power of Attorney (POA) for property purchase:
1. Certificate of Employment
2. Tax returns for the past 1-2 years
* If the main applicant is a minor, parents' certificate of employment + tax returns must be provided
* If the main applicant is a retiree, retirement certificate + tax returns must be provided
* If the main applicant is unemployed, spouse's certificate of employment + tax returns for both + proof of marital relationship (notarized marriage certificate) must be provided
* If both parties are unemployed, tax returns + proof of financial resources must be provided
Prior to this new regulation, only three basic documents were required to sign a POA at the Greek Consulate in Shanghai: passport, proof of address, and notarized proof of kinship.
As you know, the Greek Golden Visa program has long been favored by investors due to its simple property investment immigration policy, low investment amount, lenient thresholds, and fast approval process. According to relevant data, compared with the same period last year, the demand for the Greek "Golden Visa" in Europe grew the most from January to June this year, with an increase of 127%. At the same time, the Greek Golden Visa is highly favored by Chinese applicants. As of the first half of this year, Greece has issued 25,999 Golden Visas, of which 17,265 were issued to Chinese nationals.
This new POA regulation also indicates that Greece's immigration policy may be tightening. Previously, the European Parliament approved a report urging EU member states to ban golden passport schemes by 2025, and the European Commission also stated that it would increase scrutiny of "Golden Visas." This suggests that European Golden Visa programs may face closure in the future!
For investors interested in immigrating to Greece, "immigrate early" is not just a saying. Immigration is a major decision that should be considered comprehensively, but on the other hand, it is truly better to act sooner rather than later. Current immigration policies can change at any time, and opportunities can disappear in an instant. Looking back at the policy evolution of traditional immigration countries, tightening is the general trend. Planning early and acting in advance is the most suitable choice at present. In the face of changing global immigration trends, one should seize the favorable policy window, act as soon as possible, and get on board!
As a world-renowned destination for tourism, vacations, and honeymoons, Greece not only possesses unique Mediterranean natural scenery but also has a comprehensive medical system and education aligned with international standards, making it an ideal choice for investors to establish a second identity! Currently, through the Greek permanent residency program, investors can not only travel freely across 26 Schengen countries with their families but also enjoy social welfare benefits such as Greek education and medical care, while also acquiring properties with permanent ownership in Greece to establish a second home abroad, which can be described as achieving multiple goals at once.
At the same time, by immigrating to Greece, children can also participate in the Joint Entrance Exam for Overseas Chinese Students, easily gaining admission to top-tier universities such as 985 and 211 institutions, and enjoying mainland higher education! With an overseas identity, children can easily enter prestigious schools. This identity not only allows children to grow up in a high-quality overseas educational environment but also provides them with more high-quality choices when facing university decisions. Currently, positive signals are frequently appearing in Greek investment, and visionary investors have already taken the lead in seizing the Greek property market. If you also have needs for overseas identity, asset allocation, or children's education, you must act in advance!

"Athens Hotel-Style Coastal Apartment"
【Project Introduction】
The project is located in Moschato, an affluent area in southern Athens, between Piraeus, the largest port in Athens, and the famous Marina Flisvos yacht harbor. It is just a stone's throw from the Aegean coastline. The balconies on the fourth floor and the rooftop terrace of the hotel offer full enjoyment of the sea view, with pleasant scenery and comfortable living. Near the project is the new Athens landmark, the SNFCC Cultural Center, which integrates a library, opera house, stadium, and rooftop garden. Numerous shipping, construction, pharmaceutical, and software companies are located here, and world-famous enterprises have also established offices in this area. At the same time, the project occupies strategic locations such as the yacht harbor, the bay area, and the airport, sharing important resources such as population, industry, and capital, with great development potential.
The Athens hotel-style coastal apartment building is 7 stories high, with the ground floor serving as the hotel reception and lobby, and floors 1-6 as hotel guest rooms. After renovation with a construction period of no more than 6 months, the project will meet the standards and conditions for move-in readiness. It will cooperate with the AIRBNB platform to conduct short-term rentals according to hotel apartment standards, helping investors manage their properties easily. The project complies with the Greek Golden Residency program application act. With an investment starting from 250,000 Euros, you can purchase 3 independent property-right hotel-style apartments, allowing three generations of your family to immigrate to Greece and obtain permanent residency in one step!
