    Greece, an ancient yet vibrant country, with its rich cultural heritage, beautiful natural scenery, stable political environment, and good educational and medical resources, has become an increasingly popular destination for immigrants. In recent years, Greece's property investment immigration has been favored by investors. Although the application thresholds for Greece's Golden Visa have been raised several times, it remains popular among investors from around the world, especially with applicants from China still holding a high position, which sufficiently demonstrates the irresistible appeal of the Golden Visa for investors or immigrants.


    Starting from September 2024, Greece's new immigration policy will officially be implemented, marking the entry of Greece's property investment immigration into a new era of "three tracks running in parallel" with investment amounts of €250,000, €400,000, and €800,000. Among them, the €250,000 "commercial to residential" project has become a highlight in the Greek investment immigration market after the price increase. Compared to other popular areas that have increased to €800,000, the "commercial to residential" project not only retains an accessible investment threshold but also allows many Chinese investors wishing to obtain Greek citizenship through investment to realize their dream of immigrating to Greece without increasing their budget.
