Greek citizenship by descent: what to prepare
Citizenship at this mission: Greek citizenship and civil registry services (birth, marriage and death registrations) are listed among the consular services on the official website.
Certified long-form records, each with an apostille, then an official Greek translation.
- Your long-form birth certificate
- Your parents' marriage certificate
- Birth, marriage and death records for each generation back to your Greek ancestor
- Your Greek ancestor's municipal registration (dimotologio) or male registry record
Translate only after the apostille is attached, by a certified translator or the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs translation service.
How the process works
- Your birth is registered at the Special Registry Office in Athens, or each generation is registered in turn.
- Adults born before the 1982/1984 cut-offs get a declaratory decision from the Citizenship Directorate.
- If the chain is broken, expatriate naturalization through the consulate is the fallback, with an interview.
- Once registered in a municipal register (dimotologio), you apply for a Greek ID and passport.
