Tax Appeal of Greece Immigration
After the European Union halted Greece's Citizenship By Investment (CBI) program, the country now only offers Residence By Investment (RBI), known as the Golden Visa Program. The visa is typically valid for 5 years, renewable, and citizenship can be applied for after 7 years of residence.
Investment Options:
- Real Estate Investment
Minimum €250,000 in Greek property - Tourism Facility Investment
10-year lease of hotels or tourism facilities - Business Investment
Minimum €400,000 investment in Greek companies - Government Bonds
Minimum €400,000 in Greek government bonds - Stock Market Investment
Minimum €800,000 in designated stocks or corporate bonds - Investment Funds
Minimum €400,000 in mutual funds or alternative investment funds - Bank Deposit
€400,000 fixed deposit in designated banks
These price points are relatively affordable for European residency, making it particularly attractive to Chinese investors. But how appealing is Greece from a tax perspective?
