Work and Holiday Visa - Greece

It has recently been announced that the reciprocal Work and Holiday arrangements between Greece and Australia will commence on 1 July 2019.

Under the arrangement, 500 places will be made available in each country annually for Greek and Australian citizens between 18 and 30 to live and work in Australia or Greece for 12 months.

The Work and Holiday visa requires first-time Greek applicants to hold or be studying towards tertiary qualifications and to have a functional level of English.

While on their first visa, Greek nationals may undertake specified work in regional areas to become eligible for a second Work and Holiday visa and extend their stay.

The media release also specifies that an option of a third year stay will also be available to the Greek Work and Holiday visa holder if they undertake six months of regional work in their second year in Australia.
