Pathway overview
Greece's combined work-and-residence permit for non-EU nationals with a job offer, under the EU Single Permit Directive.
Verified via WebSearch, cross-referenced across multiple independent sources: you need a job offer from a Greek employer. Under Law 5275/2026 (transposing EU Directive 2024/1233), the residence permit and work authorization are merged into one document, one procedure, jointly administered by the Ministry of Migration and Asylum and the Ministry of Labour and Social Security. Your employment contract must run at least 6 months, and your employer must demonstrate the role can't be filled by a Greek, EU, or EEA citizen and that the position complies with regional employment quotas — this checker verifies your own job offer, not the employer's availability demonstration. The process runs through employer authorization, a National Type D Visa from a Greek consulate, then the Single Permit after arrival.
