Your passport must be valid for at least one year (ideally longer) and have at least three blank pages. We recommend checking this at the very beginning.

Court certificate (proof that you have no criminal convictions) — approximately 1,300 RSD, submitted at the court, usually issued on the same day.

Police certificate (proof that you have no administrative offenses) — approximately 300 RSD, can be ready in as few as 7 days.

These documents do not require additional translation or certification.

A medical examination is required using the official form available on the Greek Embassy website. The form is printed in Serbian and completed by a general practitioner — it must be fully and correctly filled out. Prices start from around 15,000 RSD.

The examination includes:

• –Laboratory (blood and urine analysis)
• –Abdominal ultrasound
• –Chest X-ray
• –Psychological and psychiatric examination
• –ECG
• –Ophthalmological examination

Застраховката за пътуване трябва да отговаря на следните изисквания:

• –Covers at least 91 days of stay
• –Minimum coverage of €30,000

A multi-entry policy is recommended — approximately €22,000 RSD and provides greater flexibility. A single-entry policy costs approximately 14,000 RSD.

Once you have collected all the required documentation, schedule an appointment at the embassy. On the day of the appointment, you must bring your passport. The visa fee is paid at the embassy and amounts to approximately €180.

Какво следва след посолството?

After the employer submits and receives approval of the application, they forward it to the Greek Embassy in Belgrade. The employee comes to the scheduled appointment with complete documentation, signs the employment contract, and pays the fee. The D visa decision is usually made within a few days.

The D visa for work in Greece is issued for up to 91 days and serves as an entry visa to begin work. It is recommended to organize entry into Greece on the date the visa starts, which is aligned with the start date of the employment contract.

При пристигане в Гърция

You must submit an application to the competent Directorate for Foreigners and Migration. Exact location information is provided by the employer or lawyer. Submit a copy of the entire passport (all pages), not just the pages with stamps.

Before submitting the application, you must pay an administrative fee (e-paravolo) of approximately €150, which can be paid at a bank or post office.

Може ли адвокат да води целия процес?

Yes. If an authorized lawyer handles the entire process, the procedure can be simplified. After entry, the employee sends scanned photos of all passport pages to the lawyer, signs a power of attorney certified at the KEP, and the lawyer then submits the application for the electronic certificate of residence and work.

Estimated legal fees for the entire process are approximately €700 + VAT.
