How do I renew the Greece Golden Visa, and what happens if I sell the investment?

Renewal of the investor permit depends on continuing to hold the qualifying investment, for example by maintaining ownership of the property or keeping an eligible leasing or timeshare arrangement active. The renewal also involves the standard documents such as a valid passport, health insurance, and payment of the applicable fees.

If you sell the qualifying property or otherwise no longer meet the investment condition, you generally lose the basis for the permit, and dependent family members' permits are affected too. A common mistake is disposing of the asset without first securing an alternative legal basis to stay, so plan any sale carefully and confirm the consequences in advance.
