An amendment facilitating the entrance of foreign entrepreneurs from non-EU countries to Greece was tabled in parliament on Tuesday, ANA reports.
A report by the General Accounting Office on the amendment noted that it also establishes a “Business Invitation” form for extending an invitation to a third-country national with the assumption of responsibility/provision of accommodation for the purposes of granting a Schengen visa. This will be used as a supporting document for examining requests for a business/professional visa, in the case that interested third country citizens are not able to certify the specific requirements by themselves.
The amendment also foresees penalties (fines and imprisonment) for persons that invite a foreign national using a “Business Invitation” with the intention of violating migration law and the provisions of Schengen.
