Greece tops new Astons ranking of world’s most powerful passports

·

Greece has been ranked among the most powerful and accessible passports in the world, according to the latest analysis by global investment migration firm Astons.

Greek passport holders can travel to 176 countries visa-free or with a visa-on-arrival, placing Greece ahead of both the UK (172) and the US (171) in global mobility rankings.

With Spain’s decision to end its Golden Visa programme, Greece has become the most attractive option for investors seeking European residency and, eventually, citizenship.

The Greek Golden Visa programme grants a five-year residency for a minimum investment of €250,000, with a fast processing time of just 60 days. After seven years, holders can apply for full citizenship, securing one of the world’s most desirable passports.

As demand surges, experts warn that Greece’s investment scheme may not be available indefinitely, making now a crucial time for investors to secure residency.
