In detail

The Greece visa medical — what to expect

A Greece visa medical is not needed for short Schengen visits, but a medical or health certificate can be required for certain national (type D) visas and residence permits — for example some long-stay work, study or family routes. Where it applies, the certificate confirms you are free from conditions that could pose a public-health risk, in the format the Greek authorities specify.

About the route. For short Schengen stays no medical is required. For national (D) visas and residence permits, whether a health certificate is needed — and its exact form — is set by the Greek consular or immigration authorities for your specific route. We complete a health certificate to the requirements you are given; send us your instructions first so we can confirm what's needed, as requirements here vary considerably by category.

Who typically needs one

  • Applicants for work permits or employment visas
  • Those applying for residency or long-stay / family visas
  • Students on longer courses, where required
  • Certain regulated or safety-critical occupations
  • Anyone whose employer, sponsor or authority has issued a medical form

Common reasons a medical is requested

  • For certain national (D) visas
  • For some residence-permit routes
  • To confirm freedom from public-health risks
  • Where a long-stay category specifies it
  • Because your consulate's instructions require it

Documentation to bring

  • Your passport, and any current or prior visa documents
  • The medical form or written requirements from the embassy, employer or authority
  • Passport-style photographs, if your form asks for them
  • A list of current medications, allergies and relevant medical history
  • Vaccination or immunisation records, if requested
  • Any reference or application number linked to your visa

What happens during the appointment

  • Check-in and confirmation of your identity and documents
  • A review of your medical history with the doctor
  • A physical examination appropriate to your form
  • Height, weight, blood pressure and general observations
  • Any blood tests or imaging your form specifies — only those it requires
  • Completion of the relevant sections of your form
What happens after your appointment. Any samples are processed at an accredited UK laboratory and your Greece form is completed once the required results are back. In most cases you or the Greek consular or immigration authorities submit the completed medical to the authority — we complete the assessment to your form and are not a visa or immigration advisory service, so we do not lodge the application on your behalf.
Typical turnaround. The examination for your Greece visa medical is usually completed in a single visit, and the finished form follows once the required blood tests are back — often a few working days, depending on which tests are specified. If you have a submission deadline, tell us when you send your form and we'll advise what is realistic.
Official requirements & your embassy. Visa medical requirements are set for your specific visa category. Requirements are set by the destination authority, not by us, and can change. Always confirm the current requirements before booking: Embassy of Greece, London →. We complete the medical to the form you are given — we are not a visa or immigration advisory service.
