I am actively preparing my Greek Golden Visa application now. Recently I heard that the immigration office in Athens no longer accepts applications. Is there a centralized database where I can check the case-processing availability of every immigration office across Greece? It could be very time-consuming to contact each office across the country to check its availability. Please advise.
Following a recent legal amendment, applications for resident permits for property owners can be submitted to any authority of the Ministry of Migration Policy outside Athens. This ensures better time framework, but you cannot check on your own the availability of free appointment, through a list. In any case, it’s advisable to address your case to professionals in order to meet the dates effectively for the whole process.
The database with the immigration offices is at the ministry site. The availability of the immigration offices for the Greek Golden Visa procedure is not information you could get without contacting each one of them.
Unfortunately, there is no centralized database that you can trace an application process, although it would be very helpful. Either you or a specialized professional has to do the job and check every office individually.
I suggest you seek advice from the person assisting you in this application to check which office suits you best.
