The Type D visa is the entry visa that allows students having a non-EU nationality to come to Greece and then secure a residence permit to legally stay and complete their training. As soon as the registration is completed, students are provided with the documentation requested to initiate the Visa D application.

The Visa D issuance process usually takes 3-4 months to complete. Egnatia Aviation maintains strong working relationships with embassies across multiple regions and provides guidance and support to facilitate a smooth and efficient visa application process, minimizing delays and inconvenience.

To become an airline pilot, you are required to obtain a Class I Medical Certificate, which includes a thorough examination of your physical and mental health. The medical certificate may be issued by aeromedical centers approved by the Competent Authority (EASA, GCAA). Our admission officers may provide further information on the matter, as we often book group slots for our students who are about to begin their training.
