Embassy of Greece in Tehran: New e-Visa Service for Iranian Citizens

The Embassy of Greece in Tehran has announced that a new Visa e-Application & Appointment System site (ELVIS Online) is available for Iranian passport holders to travel to Greece for business and tourism.

The new ELVIS Online application is hosted on the official site of the Embassy of Greece in Tehran under the Greek MFA portal.

Interested Iranian nationals are invited to surf the website, choose a desired appointment time with the Consular Office (according to availability) and fill in their Shengen C VISA application.

At the Consular Office, Iranian nationals will submit any supporting documents [as before: shenashnameh, academic/professional certifications, title deeds, (translated & certified by the IRI Ministries for Justice and Foreign Affairs), eventual invitations from companies in Greece (for business C VISAs), bank statements for previous 3-6 months, travel insurance as well as IKA-ATH airline booking and hotel reservation (stamped & signed by the Greek travel agent)], be photographed and fingerprinted.

The new ELVIS Online application provides to the end-user the possibility to upload – along with the VISA application – an ICAO-standard photograph. Therefore, interview and application processing time falls under 2-3 minutes.

All Shengen C VISA applications (requested for tourism, business, etc) will be submitted online through Registration on ELVIS Online exclusively. There will be no separate process for granting group appointments to travel agencies.
