Greece study visa at a glance

  • Students from India need a long-stay National Visa (Type D) for study stays of more than 90 days.
  • The visa is applied for at the Greek consulate that covers your country of residence. The Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs publishes the official rules.
  • After you arrive, non-EU students apply for a residence permit for studies with the Greek migration authorities. It is linked to your enrolment and is renewed according to the rules in force.
  • Requirements can differ by consulate and by university, so confirm the list for your own application.
