The Australian Embassy in Greece has announced that degrees from 45 Australian universities will now be recognised in Greece.
The change comes after Greece passed a new law, known as 4957/2022, with the aim to foster job mobility, knowledge transfer, and closer links between Australia and Greece.
In a Facebook post, The Australian Embassy in Greece said the process to be placed on Greece’s National Register of Recognised Foreign Universities will be “very simple and straightforward.”
Individuals with a Bachelor’s Degree (minimum 3 years), a Master’s Degree (minimum duration of 1 year), a Juris Doctor or a PhD, can now expect to be granted academic equivalence in 60 days from the day of application to the Hellenic National Academic Recognition and Information Centre (DOATAP).
