Student Visas for Greece

Are you from Bangladesh? You might need a student visa…

Don’t worry, everything is under control. We’re doing all we can to make your search for the perfect international degree in Greece easier and more enjoyable. Meanwhile, you can get a head start and:

  • Check if you really need a student visa.
    Since you’re from Bangladesh and planning full-time academic study in Greece, yes, you will definitely need a student visa.

  • Start exploring the official Greek visa information.
    For Bangladeshi applicants, the Greek Embassy in Dhaka handles student visa applications. That’s where the most up-to-date and reliable info is. Bookmark it, read it, and read it again.

  • Check the deadlines.
    The visa process can take several weeks. Missing an appointment or a required document could delay your visa and cause you to miss the start of your studies — not a twist you want in your story.

  • Prepare your paperwork carefully.
    Make sure you have all the essentials, such as:

    • Valid passport

    • Acceptance letter from a Greek institution (usually via the institution or Greek authorities)

    • Completed visa application form

    • Passport-size photos

    • Proof of accommodation in Greece

    • Proof of financial support

    • Academic transcripts and certificates

    • Language proficiency proof (Greek or English, depending on your program)

    • Medical insurance and possibly a health certificate

    • Motivation letter or interview confirmation (if required)

  • Start saving up.
    You will need to prove you can support yourself financially throughout your stay. This includes tuition fees (if applicable), living expenses, visa fees, and everyday costs.

  • Improve your Greek or English skills.
    Many programmes are offered in English, but knowing some Greek will make daily life, paperwork, and local connections much easier. Good language skills also help in interviews or any written submissions.

All in all, getting your Greek student visa may seem like a big task — but it’s one crucial step toward an amazing new adventure.

Good luck and stay confident!
