Au pair in Greece
Official Au Pair in Greece Program Information :

There is no official au pair in Greece program, however you can become an au pair in Greece without a resident permit if you are from the EU / EEA / EFTA. They are only required to register with the authorities in Greece. Additional information can be found at: http://www.mfa.gr/en/visas/.

Note: Click here if you want to find a list of countries requiring or not requiring a visa.

To be an au pair in Greece, Non-EU / EEA / EFTA citizens need a resident permit. Au pairs from these countries must contact their local Greek Embassy to see if they qualify for a work permit. You can find a list of Greek embassies here.

Resident permits are very difficult to obtain. They require Government approval, a large deposit, by the au pair or host family. Very few permits are approved. Greece has the lowest approval rate of any resident permit. You need to first obtain a visa to enter Greece then apply for a permit within 30 days of your arrival if you intend to work there longer than 90 days. The process from start to finish, can take up to a year.

Au Pair in Greece Mandatory Criteria

  • Please clarify your job duties with your host family and have it put in writing in your contract
Driving
