We prepare complete bundles—including translations and legalisations where needed—handle online submissions where applicable, and monitor renewals and changes of purpose.
When decisions are negative, we assess administrative remedies and, where appropriate, annulment and suspension before the administrative courts.
We support lawful stay in Greece from our Heraklion office, including clients across Crete and the mainland.
