Greece Car Hire
Red Tape and Visas
There is no requirement of visas for all EU nations as well as for UK for entrance to the city. They need only a valid passport for entry to Greece; you are no longer stamped in on arrival or out upon departure, and in theory at least enjoy uniform civil rights with Greek citizens. If you wish to remain in Greece for longer than three months, as a non-EU/EFTA national you should officially apply for an extension. This can be done in the larger cities like Athens, Thessaloníki, Pátra, Rhodes and Iráklion through the Ypiresía Allodhapón. Unless of Greek descent, visitors from non-EU countries are currently allowed only one six-month extension to a tourist visa, for which a hefty fee is charged - up to ?150. US, Australian, New Zealand, Canadian and most non-EU Europeans receive mandatory entry and exit stamps in their passports and can stay, as tourists, for ninety days. Some individuals play with laws by leaving the country after three months and comes again some days after from a different post, for the newer 90 days tourist stamp.
If you overstay your time and then leave under your own power - you’ll be hit with a huge spot fine upon departure, effectively a double-priced retroactive visa extension
