Greece Visa Checker for Santorini

Greece, as a Schengen member, does not require a tourist visa for citizens of the EU/EEA, the UK, Switzerland, the United States, Canada, Australia or Japan, among many other nationalities. Visa-exempt travellers can generally stay up to 90 days within any 180-day period, though entry is always at the discretion of the border officer.

What every traveller needs to know

  • A valid passport is required for entry โ€” check that it will remain valid well beyond your planned departure date.
  • Airlines will generally refuse boarding without proof of an onward or return ticket out of Greece โ€” have it ready to show at check-in, not just at immigration.
  • There is no separate exit tax when leaving Greece by air or ferry, but check that any airport or port fees are already built into your ticket price.
  • No vaccinations are required to enter Greece, except yellow fever for travellers arriving from certain countries in South America and Africa โ€” check current requirements if this applies to your route.
  • Visitors renting a quad or scooter to explore Santorini should carry a valid driving licence โ€” check the rental company's requirements, as rules on international permits vary by nationality.

Always verify current requirements on the official Greek immigration portal before booking flights โ€” rules and permitted stay lengths can change. travel.state.gov ยท canada.ca
