What costs are involved in the shares and bonds investment route of the Greek Golden Visa program?

Besides the application fees, the expenses for the Golden Visa process and the related legal fees, there will be some extra fees and commissions that the banks will charge per case for their services. The related bank fees are possible to vary.

There are costs for bank services, translation of documents, notary services and other costs, such as fees for the issuance of documents.

The new criteria include the investment of a minimum of 400,000 euros in state bonds of at least three years’ duration through a Greece-based bank， or the investment of a minimum of 400,000 euros in a mutual fund set up in Greece or abroad to invest exclusively in shares and bonds trading in Greece and with total assets of least 3 million euros. Foreigners may also obtain the permit with an investment of 800,000 euros in stocks or corporate bonds in the Greek capital markets. Furthermore, all the costs and fees included in the process of getting a Greek Golden Visa are pocket money.
