The Consulate General of Greece in Sydney launched an information campaign on consular matters by organising a seminar on Friday, 6 March 2026, at the premises of the Consulate.
The seminar focused on the process of acquiring citizenship, with particular emphasis on the registration of vital events.
The Consul General of Greece in Sydney, George Skemperis, in cooperation with the staff of the Registry Department of the Consulate, presented to 30 representatives of Greek community and student associations the procedures concerning the registration of vital records, the acquisition of Greek citizenship, and the issuance of Greek passports.



During the seminar, detailed clarification was provided regarding the required documents and the individual stages of the procedure, while participants’ questions were also addressed.
The aim of the initiative is to provide accurate and up-to-date information to the representatives of the organisations and student associations, so that they are able accordingly to inform their members and the wider Greek community.

The Consulate General warmly thanks all those who responded to the invitation and participated in this first informational event.
In the near future, additional thematic informational seminars are planned, including sessions on military service matters, aiming to further strengthen public awareness and continuously improve the provision of consular services to the citizens.
The informational campaign will also reach social media in the immediate future.
