Visa Requirements for Greece Trip

Indians travelling to Greece need a Greece Schengen Visa for their trip. This visa allows you to visit Greece and other countries that are part of the Schengen Agreement. The Visa is valid for 180 days from the day of issuance and you can plan your trip accordingly.

You will need to submit a list of documents along with your application form. These documents include a passport with 3 months validity, hotel bookings, itineraries, a copy of the ticket, financial proof, and a cover letter explaining your reasons for visiting Greece.

The processing time for the visa is about 15 days and will cost you approximately INR 7800 per person. For children between the age of 6 to 12 years the cost of the visa is INR 3700 and for kids below the age of 6 it is free. However, the demand to visit Greece and other Schengen countries is higher; it may take about 20 to 30 days to process the visa. Hence you should submit your application at least a month before your intended visit date.
