Enterprise Greece
State investment and trade promotion company · Βασιλίσσης Σοφίας 109, 115 21 Αθήνα
The official investment agency, on Vasilissis Sofias — and it has no role whatsoever in the Golden Visa, which is the thing most people expect it to do.
- Full name
- Ελληνική Εταιρεία Επενδύσεων και Εξωτερικού Εμπορίου Α.Ε. A société anonyme under the supervision of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
- Address
- Βασιλίσσης Σοφίας 109, 115 21 Αθήνα
- Telephone
- +30 210 335 5700
- info@eg.gov.gr; investinfo@eg.gov.gr The domain is eg.gov.gr, not enterprisegreece.gov.gr. A good deal of published contact information gets this wrong.
- Role in the Golden Visa
- None, and there never was one No residence permit or visa page exists anywhere in its English sitemap. Its own guide to residence permits for property owners now displays a single line of text reading "UNDER REVIEW" and the PDF is withdrawn. The organisation chart contains no migration, visa or residence unit.
- What it lost in April 2026
- Strategic Investments Following Law 5297/2026, published 28 April 2026, applications for strategic investments and their evaluation moved to the General Secretariat for Private Investments at the Ministry of Development, Νίκης 5-7, Σύνταγμα. Enterprise Greece’s own published organisation chart still shows two Strategic Investments directorates and is stale.
- The Investor Ombudsman
- The page is a 404 Absent from the current sitemap. Whether the function was formally abolished or merely dropped from the website could not be confirmed. Published references to ombudsman@eg.gov.gr point at a dead page.
- Public opening hours
- Not published There is no advertised walk-in counter. Contact is by form, telephone or email.
Enterprise Greece is the state’s investment and trade promotion company, sitting under the Foreign Ministry, with a head office on Vasilissis Sofias and a small Thessaloniki presence.
Why this file is mostly about what it is not
A great deal of relocation writing implies that the official investment agency is somehow part of the investor residence permit process. It is not. That is a single department in the Ministry building at Rentis and it always has been.
The evidence is unusually clean: nothing in the agency’s own sitemap, nothing in its organisation chart, and a withdrawn publication where its residence permit guide used to be.
What it publishes is worth having — a tax guide, a company formation guide, and investment incentive material, all updated for 2025 and 2026. Treat it as a reference library rather than a service desk.
