Document planning tool

Check whether your required file is ready to move

Use the live country checklists to rate each required file as ready, in progress, not started, or help needed. The score is about document preparation only, not visa approval.

This screen is a planning aid. It does not replace legal advice, consular discretion, or country-specific filing review.

Preparation disclaimer

This tool measures document readiness only. It does not confirm route eligibility, filing-channel acceptance, or approval certainty.

Required file check

Score the required file slots first. Optional items stay out of the percentage so missing core evidence remains visible.

Passport and visa-application identity set

Completed national D-visa application form, compliant photo, and passport or travel document meeting the Greek visa validity conditions.

Not started

Timing

Prepare before booking or attending the Greek consular filing channel.

3

Foreign remote-work proof

Open-ended or sufficiently long fixed-term employment or service contracts, employer certificate, or foreign-company evidence showing the work is remote and tied to employers or clients outside Greece.

Not started

Timing

Collect early because employer letters and contract revisions can delay the filing.

Employees should show a foreign employer, remote-work permission, and contract duration that still covers the requested visa period.

4

After-tax income proof

Contracts, employer certificates, payroll records, bank statements, or service evidence proving at least EUR 3,500/month after taxes for the main applicant, with the official family increases added where relevant.

Not started

Timing

Use current evidence and reconcile it before filing so the after-tax amount is obvious.

Checklist helper

Build the file around net income after taxes, not only gross salary or invoice totals.

5

Medical certificate and insurance package

Medical certificate plus travel insurance covering repatriation, emergency medical care, and emergency hospital care for at least the visa period.

Not started

Timing

Arrange before filing and keep the coverage valid through the visa stage and any planned permit handoff.

6

Criminal-record certificate

Criminal-record document from the foreign authorities of your country of residence.

Not started

Timing

Checklist helper

Confirm the correct issuing authority, validity period, legalization rule, and translation requirements for your country of residence.

7

Accommodation and permit-stage housing readiness

For the residence-permit stage, the official checklist expects a residence lease or a contract for the purchase of real estate in Greece. Even visa-stage applicants should plan this handoff early.

Not started

Timing

Plan this before filing if you expect to stay beyond the visa phase or use the residence-permit handoff.

Checklist helper

Treat housing as a permit-stage requirement, not a last-minute attachment. Use evidence that can support the later Greek residence-permit filing if needed.

Conditional or optional items

Not scored

These items stay visible for planning, but they do not raise the score above missing required files.

Visa-to-permit sequencing note

A short planning note that keeps the consular visa file, travel timing, accommodation, insurance, and any later residence-permit step in Greece aligned.

Dependent civil documents

Marriage, partnership, birth, custody, or dependency records for any accompanying family members relying on the published income add-ons.

What this tool does

Does this tool predict visa approval?

No. It scores file preparation against the published checklist items for each live country route.

Are optional items included in the score?

No. Version one scores required checklist items first. Conditional or optional items are shown separately so they cannot outweigh missing required files.

When should I book a consultation from here?

Use the booking handoff when a required file needs help, when translation or legalization feels unclear, or when you want an expert review before filing.
