Greece introducing TechVisa and TalentVisa in a bid to attract highly-skilled graduates

The 'Greek Tech Visa for Outstanding Talent' is a simplified and rapid programme for employees, investors and founders of businesses and start-ups outside the EU to get a residence permit in Greece and work at businesses in the national startups register (Elevate Greece). It will be issued for one year and allow holders to work, change employer or become self-employed, while it can be extended to immediate members of family. On expiration, holders can either apply for renewal or for permanent settlement in Greece.
