If you succeed in finding a job in Greece, your employer can apply for a work permit and a work residence permit on your behalf.
Steps to Obtain a Work Visa
- Finding a Job in Greece: The first step to obtaining a work visa in Greece is to secure a job offer from an employer or a Greek company. You need to contact an employer in Greece and explore job opportunities.
- Applying for Approval from OAED: After finding a job opportunity, your employer must apply for a work permit for you from the Greek Manpower Employment Organization (OAED). This application includes details such as the type of job, salary, benefits, and employment contract.
- Applying for the Work Visa: Upon approval from the OAED, you can visit the Greek embassy or consulate in your country and submit your application for a work visa. At this stage, you need to provide documents such as the OAED approval, employment contract, identification documents, etc.
- Visa Approval and Entry into Greece: After reviewing your application, if it is approved, you will be granted a work visa. You can then enter Greece and start working at your desired company or organization.
In each step of this process, it is important to prepare the required documents carefully and seek assistance from relevant legal advisors if needed.
