Submission by: Submitted by the applicant (in person)

Submitted by: Persons

Notes: According to par. 2 of article 8 of the Presidential Decree 106/2007, the applicant must have sufficient resources for himself/herself and his/her family members as defined in par. 3 of Article 8 of the same Decree, so that they do not become a burden on the social welfare system of Greece during their period of residence. In par. 3 of article 8 of PD 106/2007 it is defined that, in order to calculate the applicants possession of sufficient resources, the personal situation of the person concerned and the amount of the minimum pension granted in Greece are taken into account (under Law 4387/2016). It is noted that, according to para. 4 of Article 8 of Directive 2004/38/EC, Greece cannot determine the amount of resources it considers as "sufficient resources", but must take into account the personal situation of the applicant. Moreover, it is not possible to establish a specific means of proof (e.g. monthly income) to the exclusion of other means which would be equally appropriate to demonstrate that the applicant has sufficient resources. Indicative examples of means of proof of sufficient resources may be documents proving the receipt of income from legal sources (e.g. pension, salary), deposits in financial institutions, either in Greece or abroad, which nevertheless allow transactions in the Greek territory, etc.

Submission by: Submitted by the applicant (in person)

Notes: Any insurance cover, private or public, taken out in Greece or elsewhere, is acceptable in principle, provided that it provides full coverage and does not burden the public finances of the country. Pensioners shall satisfy the condition of full sickness insurance cover if they are entitled to medical treatment from the Member State paying their pension. The European Health Insurance Card offers full coverage when the Union citizen does not transfer residence within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 1408/71 to the host Member State (Greece) and has the intention to return, e.g. for studies or a posting.
