Greece

Visão geral da economia e do setor

Greece is a high-income, open economy in Southern Europe and a member of the European Union and Eurozone. Tourism and shipping are the dominant industries, with Greece operating the world's largest merchant fleet by tonnage. The services sector accounts for approximately 78% of GDP, while industry contributes around 18% and agriculture roughly 4%. Following a severe sovereign-debt crisis in the 2010s, Greece has sustained positive GDP growth since 2017, supported by fiscal consolidation, rising tourism revenues, and foreign direct investment. Key structural challenges include a still-elevated unemployment rate, high public debt, and ongoing demographic pressures from emigration and an ageing population.

Relocalização e residência

Greece offers several relocation-friendly fiscal regimes in addition to the Golden Visa: a 7% flat-tax programme for foreign-sourced pension income (15 years), a 50% income-tax exemption for new tax residents relocating for employment or self-employment, and a lump-sum annual tax of €100,000 on foreign-sourced income for high-net-worth individuals transferring tax residency.
