Non-EU passport holders must obtain a national Type D visa, which is further required for the issuance of a residence permit upon arrival in Greece and course commencement.
Visa D requirements
The following lists present the most frequently requested documents within the context of issuing a Visa D. Additional documents may be requested by the relevant Greek Embassy/Consulate.
Please note that the Visa D issuance process usually takes 3-4 months to complete. You are therefore recommended to initiate the application process at least 4 months before the course start date.
