Expatriates

Greek companies are giving positive feedback to the tech visa, a new national entry visa valid for one year, which provides the possibility for highly skilled people to work in Greece for startups on the national register of startups (Elevate Greece) - i.e. for technology companies based or present in this country.

In a special promotional campaign offering visas for "digital nomads," the Turkish Culture and Tourism Ministry has extended an invitation to foreign remote workers to ply their trade in Türkiye, spotlighting Istanbul and the Mediterranean district of Dalaman as prime locations of interest.

The Greek Digital Nomad Visa allows remote workers and online entrepreneurs to stay for up to two years

Workfromgreece.gr, an initiative of Marketing Greece, carried out a series of actions over the last few weeks in Athens, Paros, Evia, Hania, Kalamata and Syros, with the aim of attracting the interest of digital nomads and remote workers to Greek destinations, as well as to hold a discussion with local tourism communities about the phenomenon of digital nomads.
