关注：解读希腊议会通过“移民法”修正案细则

This is to inform you that the Greek Parliament voted 9th of July, 2015 the amendment of the Greek Immigration Code (hereinafter the “Code”).

兹特告知2015年7月9日希腊议会投票通过希腊移民法的修正案（后简称“移民法”）

This amendment of the Code incorporates improvements to the granting of Residence Permits of non-EU citizens who purchase a property in Greece, of a value of at least 250.000. The respective proposals have been thoroughly discussed with the General Secretary of the Ministry of Interior Affairs and they were adopted by the new Greek Government in the relevant Code amendment.

非欧盟居民在希腊购买25万欧元以上的房产可获得希腊居留，修正后的移民法对此进一步改善。经内政部秘书处详细讨论后，各条改善措施以法律修正案形式为希腊新政府采用。

The major improvements are the following:

主要改善措施如下：

- The Residence Permit that is granted to the aforementioned investors is officially named as “Permanent Investor’s Residence Permit”. As long as the purchaser remains the property owner, the Residence Permit is not revoked. The obligation for renewal (i.e. investigation of the ownership status) that was provided by the former legislation is not changed.

解析：获得的希腊身份名称由’reident permit for special reason’转换为‘permanent resident permit for investor’，明确了永居的身份。永居身份每5年更新一次，永居身份与房产绑定，申请人需一直持有房产。

- The family members that are entitled to be granted with a connected Residence Permit, because of the granting of a main Residence Permit of the property owner, remain the same (i.e. husband or wife and children aged up to 21 years old). Additionally, following the amendment of the Code, the parents of the property owner and his/her husband’s/wife’s parents are also entitled to apply for such a connected permanent Residence Permit.

解析：申请人除了可以带配偶和不满21岁的子女移民外，自己和配偶的父母也可以随同申请，拿到的身份将和主申请人一样，并且对随行父母的年龄没有任何限制。真正实现了一人投资，全家三代移民。

- In case that a non-EU citizen decided to invest in a property already purchased by another investor, following a relevant amendment, he/she is entitled to apply for a permanent Residence Permit. The aforesaid option was not permitted before the amendment of the Code. The Residence Permits that had been issued for the previous owner and his/her family members are automatically revoked.

解析：新政中，通过购房获得居留许可的人可以将房产转售给其他想获得居留许可的人，间接解决了孩子21岁没有身份的问题，父母可以在孩子21岁后将房产和身份转给孩子，自己作为父母加入申请。

-Investors and their spouses may apply for citizenship after a 7-year stay in Greece.Underage foreigner (meaningunder 18 years old) that residencespermanently and legally in Greece has a right to obtain Greek citizenship ifhe/she was a student at a Greek school either of 6 classes on the secondaryeducation (12-18 years old) or 9 classes all together. Kinder garden is notcounting towards those years. Foreigner that livespermanently and legally in Greece and is a graduate of a Greek university or Technogical Institute can obtain the Greek citizenship if he/she has completeda secondary level and graduated from a Greek school. The application can befilled during a 3 years deadline from the graduation date.

解析：申请人及其配偶可以通过希腊永居身份，在希腊合法居住满7年后申请入籍。18周岁之前连续在希腊读书满6年，最晚12岁开始就读；或满足在希腊高中和大学毕业(大学毕业后三年内申请入籍)；或满足在希腊初中和技校毕业（技校毕业后三年内申请入籍）即可入籍。

Following the adoption of the amendment of the Code by the Greek Parliament, it is expected the Law’s publication in the Official Greek Government’s Gazette and the issuance of the respective Ministry Decisions and Circulars which are necessary for the full implementation of the above mentioned improvements.

随着移民法修正案的通过，希腊政府公告、相关部委决议和操作细则很快就会出台，法律进入实际实施阶段。
