Depending on your nationality and the duration of your Erasmus+ studies, you may be required to obtain a visa prior to your arrival in Greece.
To determine whether a visa is required, please consult the official website of the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs. A comprehensive guide on visa categories, including national visas and other relevant information for incoming students, is available at the official portal.
Students are strongly advised to contact the nearest Greek Embassy or Consulate in their country of residence in order to obtain accurate and up-to-date information regarding:
Visa procedures may require significant time to complete; therefore, early application is strongly recommended to avoid delays.
Students staying in Greece for more than 90 days are typically required to apply for a student residence permit after arrival. The application is submitted following entry into Greece with a valid visa and is processed by the Greek immigration authorities (Ministry of Migration and Asylum).
Non-EU students are responsible for ensuring timely renewal or extension of their visa or residence permit where necessary. Maintaining valid legal status in Greece throughout the period of study is the sole responsibility of the student.
For detailed information and application procedures, please refer to the official website of the Ministry of Migration and Asylum.
