Greece Seasonal Work Permits
Summary
If you overstay your 9-month seasonal work permit in Greece, you may face fines, deportation, and re-entry bans. Employers can apply for extensions or convert permits to long-term or residence permits. A 5-year seasonal permit allows seasonal work each year, but overstaying can lead to legal issues. Temporary extensions require employer applications and documentation. For permanent residency, accumulate 5 years of legal residency, stable employment, and meet Greek immigration criteria. Seasonal permit holders can travel within the Schengen Area for up to 90 days. Permanent residents can stay outside Greece for up to 6 months annually without affecting status. Consult local immigration authorities for specific guidance.Full Conversation
