How long is a Greece work visa valid after it is issued?

Hi everyone,

I recently received a job offer in Greece and I’m preparing to apply for a Greece work visa. I’d like to understand how long the visa remains valid once it is approved.

Does the Greece work visa have a specific entry validity period, and how long can I stay in Greece initially? Also, after entering the country, how soon do I need to apply for a residence permit? I want to make sure I don’t miss any important deadlines.

If anyone has recently gone through the Greece work visa process, please share how the validity and residence permit timeline worked in your case.

Thanks for your help!
