Frequently Asked Questions
Can you get Greek citizenship by descent?
Yes. Greek citizenship is primarily granted based on ancestry, meaning if you have Greek parents or grandparents, you may be eligible.
Does Greece allow dual citizenships?
Yes. Greek nationality law permits dual citizenship. Greek citizens are also European Union citizens, enjoying the associated rights.
How do I apply for Greek citizenship if I live in Chicago?

Call us at 1-833-MY-GREECE (1-833-694-7332).
Do I need to visit the Greek Consulate in Chicago for my citizenship application?
No. We handle the entire application process, so you don’t need to visit the consulate.
How long can I stay in Greece without being a citizen?
You can stay in Greece for up to 90 days within any 180-day period without a visa.
If you plan to stay longer than 90 days, you’ll need to apply for a visa at the Greek Embassy or Consulate before arriving. Visas are available for property owners, students, employees, athletes, coaches, and others.
Do my parents need to get Greek citizenship before I can apply if only my grandparent has it?
No, your parents don’t have to get Greek citizenship first. You can apply directly through your Greek grandparent’s citizenship if you have the proper documentation. However, the process is often smoother and faster if your parent already holds Greek citizenship. If a parent wants to claim as well, we can handle both applications together at a family rate.
How long does it typically take to get Greek citizenship with Greece Media?
The timeline varies depending on your specific case. Applications through parents usually take 1 to 2 years, while those through grandparents can take 1 to 3 years. Occasionally, cases finish much quicker, but there’s no exact science to it. Processing times depend on factors like document complexities and potential delays at local municipalities in Greece.
Is your Greek citizenship service a rush process?
No, we are not a rush service. However, because we manage your case directly and professionally, we often complete applications significantly faster than those who go through a Greek Consulate or Greek Embassy on their own.
Do you also serve Greeks who don’t live in Chicago?
Yes, we serve Greek Americans nationwide and internationally. While this page focuses on Chicago and Illinois residents, our Greek citizenship assistance is available to eligible clients regardless of where they live.
