Alternate Minister of Foreign Affairs Miltiadis Varvitsiotis announced in Parliament the submission of an amendment establishing a new form of business invitation, the Business Visa.
The “business visa” amendment concerns third-country nationals who wish to enter Greece to participate in conferences, fairs, meetings or other business-related events without having to complete the usual bureaucratic process for obtaining a visa. In this case, Greek citizens will submit to the competent Consular Authorities a standardised invitation form, assuming responsibility for hosting the visa applicant.
The establishment of the “Business Invitation” is part of the broader framework for attracting investments and shaping a business-friendly and investment-friendly environment.
