Greece’s Financial Independence (FIP) visa is a passive-income residence route for people with stable foreign income who will not work locally in Greece. NomadIndex lists 2-year renewable stay, family inclusion and a citizenship path flag — but income and fee fields are not verified in our dataset. US retirees and financially independent planners should confirm live thresholds on official Greek sources before applying.
From the United States: treat missing NomadIndex income figures as a hard stop until you read official Greek thresholds. Do not copy unverified blog numbers into a consular file. US worldwide tax reporting generally continues after relocation.
Searches for “greece financially independent person visa”, “Greece FIP visa” and “Greece financial independence visa” usually need income rules, work restrictions and renewability. This page maps NomadIndex’s greece-financial-independence fields with a US planning angle and honest gaps where data is placeholder.

Tax notes in our dataset state foreign pension and investment income treatment varies. Local work is not the intent of an FIP-style route. US citizens retain IRS reporting obligations — get cross-border advice.
Tax treatment varies by individual circumstances. Consult a qualified tax advisor before relocating.
