To enter Greece, a valid travel document is required. Citizens of the European Union may enter using their national ID card (with Latin characters), without needing a passport or visa.
For visitors from non-EU countries, entry requirements vary. Many countries—such as the USA, Canada, Australia, and the UK—are visa-exempt for short stays of up to 90 days within the Schengen Area. Travelers from countries requiring a visa must apply for one in advance through the Greek consulate or embassy in their country.
Passports must be valid and remain valid for at least three months beyond the intended date of departure from the Schengen zone. For accurate and up-to-date information, always check with your nearest Greek embassy or consulate, or consult the official website of the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
