GVC’s new program provides Filipinos residency, investment, and wealth diversification prospects in scenic Greece
Golden Visa Centrale (GVC), a prominent international property marketing consultancy specializing in residency through investment, has unveiled its latest opportunity tailored for Filipino investors seeking prospects in Greece via the newly introduced Greek Golden Visa program.
Vicky Luis, President and Founder of GVC, highlighted the growing interest in residency-by-investment programs globally, including the Philippines. She emphasized the advantages these programs bring, providing investors and their families with the freedom to travel, study, work, and opportunities for wealth diversification.
The Golden Visa program is a residency-by-investment initiative enabling individuals and their families to acquire foreign residency or citizenship by meeting a minimum investment requirement set by the country’s government. This program offers benefits such as unrestricted travel and potential tax advantages. Over 130,000 people have obtained golden visas from similar programs in European countries like Portugal, Spain, and Greece with more than 60 countries worldwide offering golden visa programs.
Since its establishment in 2019, GVC has successfully processed and facilitated numerous golden visa applications across various European countries and the U.S.
Luis noted a significant annual increase of at least 30% in golden visa applications from the Philippines since 2019, showcasing a rising trend among Filipinos seeking international residency and investment opportunities. She expressed excitement about introducing the Greek Golden Visa program to Filipino investors, ideal for those looking for profitable investments or a residence in one of the world’s most beautiful locations.
The Greek Golden Visa program, initiated in 2013, granted 31,000 golden visas in 2022, injecting €2.3 billion into the Greek economy. With an initial investment of €250,000, the program allows Filipinos to invest in Patra, the third-largest city in Greece and a thriving university hub on the Peloponnese peninsula. The investment comes with numerous benefits, including a five-year permanent residence visa, reunification for up to three generations of family members, remote application convenience, visa-free travel within Schengen countries, fast processing times, and no stay requirements.
Luis highlighted the program’s appeal, combining a vibrant living experience with a reasonable investment threshold, making it an excellent choice for those seeking affordable and desirable residency opportunities. The Greek Golden Visa program, along with other offerings, reflects GVC’s mission to provide clients with the freedom to enjoy beautiful landscapes while actively contributing to the economic development of cities and countries worldwide.
