希腊永居新政

        The Greek residence permit program is about to be improved as part of compliance of the Greek Immigration Code to the relevant European Directive 98/2011. Our proposals were appreciated by the ministry of interior and were incorporated in a new act expected to receive parliament’s approval by the end of June 2015. The parliament’s approval was eventually granted on 09.07.15

       中文翻译如下： 希腊买房拿居留许可的项目符合欧盟98/2011项法律。关于新政的内容已经由希腊内政部的批准，并且于2015年6月底递交国会。国会于2015年7月9日批准新政。

        Most significant improvements are listed below:

        新政的几个重要的改变如下：

•    The investor and all descendants (children of both husband and spouse) under 21 years old, receive a “Permanent residence” and will have the rights of permanent residents in Greece, by renewing their initial 5year residence permits for additional 5year periods, as long as the property hold is maintained by the investor.

     投资者以及所有后代（与配偶的子女），21周岁以下的子女，都将直接获得“永

     久居留”，并且有权利在希腊合法居住，只要房产不出售，该居留许可为永久居

     留许可，每5年一次更新。

        •    Staying or visiting Greece for a specified time during the period that the investor keeps hold of the property, is no longer a requirement for the renewal of the 5 year residency permit, which from now forms part of the 7 year citizenship requirement. In simple words as long as the investor holds the deeds of the property for a 7 year consecutive period, he is eligible to apply for citizenship.

        •    每5年更新一次“永久居留许可”，不需要申请人入境希腊或者居住。同时在持有希腊永居7年可以申请希腊护照。简单归纳为：只要投资者持有房产7年，便可以申请希腊的护照。 

        •    Greek citizenship is also granted to the children of both husband and spouse, provided that they are less than 18 years old at the date the investor is registered as a Greek citizen. The provision for a permanent residence permit for the children of the investor, until the age of 21st, remains in effect.

        •    配偶双方任一一方只要拥有希腊国籍，其18周岁以下的子女直接可以加入希腊国籍。若不加入国籍，子女持有的居住许可仍然持续到21周岁。

        •    Parents of both husband and spouse will also receive a permanent residence permit as long as the property hold is maintained by the couple.

        •    丈夫和妻子的双方父母，都可以直接拿到永久居留许可。

        •    The permanent residence permit acquired by an investor can be and will be <transferred> to another investor that  agrees to purchase the property from the initial buyer, who in turn is deprived of his rights to the permit.

        •    投资者购房后可以将房产出售给第三方，但是同时失去永居权利。
