About Greece
Greece is a country in Southern Europe that combines a rich history, a vibrant culture, and a favorable geographic location. Situated at the crossroads of three continents – Europe, Asia and Africa – it offers unique opportunities for business, investment and comfortable living.
The Hellenic Republic is bordered by the Aegean, Ionian and Mediterranean seas. The capital is Athens, a city with more than 3,000 years of history. The official language is Greek and the official currency is the Euro. The country is a full member of the European Union and the Schengen Area, which allows for free movement throughout Europe.
Greece is the birthplace of ideas and achievements that have changed the world forever. It is where the foundations of democracy, theater, philosophy and the Olympic Games were laid. These elements have had a profound influence on the development of civilization. Every corner of the country holds traces of thousands of years of history – from the majestic Acropolis in Athens and the mystical Delphi to the Palace of Knossos in Crete and the towering monasteries of Meteora.
But Greece is not only attractive for its history. Its mild climate, more than 300 days of sunshine a year, and warm seas make it an ideal place to live. The Mediterranean diet, one of the healthiest in the world, combines fresh vegetables, seafood, olive oil, and aromatic herbs. And the breathtaking scenery-from the beaches of Santorini to the mountains of Mount Olympus-offers endless opportunities for relaxation and inspiration.
Greece is a place where history, culture and natural beauty come together in harmony to create a unique environment for life and business.
Greece’s advantageous geographic location provides excellent business opportunities. Its major ports, such as Piraeus, connect the country to major international trade routes. Modern airports and roads provide easy access to other countries. For companies looking to enter the global market, Greece is becoming an important logistics and transportation hub, offering direct access to the EU market and other regions. Entrepreneurs, investors and their families have the right to obtain a multi-year residence permit. After five years of continuous residence in Greece, they can apply for permanent residence and after seven years, citizenship.
