  • Fixed fee, quoted upfront
  • End-to-end accountability
What we do

One partner for the whole move

Most providers stop at the visa. Mazi carries the case from the first call to the residence card — and stays for the apartment, the tax number (AFM) and the school run. From one senior hire to a seasonal workforce, or a family moving on its own.

For individuals & families

Moving to Greece yourself?

Skilled & senior hires

Specialist roles, management transfers and highly qualified employment.

Typical routes: the EU Blue Card, the Tech or Talent visa, or an intra-corporate transfer.

Workforce & seasonal hiring

Employers recruiting staff from third countries, in ones or in dozens.

Typical routes: metaklisi (the employer invitation procedure) for seasonal or salaried jobs, and posted workers.

How it works

From first call to settled in Greece — and every renewal after

Timelines: a route answer within the first week. Most permit routes, metaklisi included, then take several months end to end. Plan your dates; we confirm a dated plan after the route check.

  1. Step 01

    Book an intro call

    Tell us who is moving, why and when: a hire, yourself or your family. We match the purpose, nationality and family situation to the right Greek permit route, with a fallback where there is one, and send a fixed-fee proposal with a case timeline and kick-off checklist.

    You: Who is moving, the purpose and your timeline

  2. Step 02

    We build the case

    Our Athens team collects the documents, arranges certified translations and apostilles, and keeps you updated in the case portal.

    You: Passports and documents; for a hire, the signed contract

  3. Step 03

    Arrival and settling-in support

    We coordinate your residence permit, tax number (AFM), social security (AMKA), lease, utilities and bank account, with clear owners and dates.

    You: Confirm arrival plans and outstanding actions

  4. Step 04

    Staying: renewals and changes

    The case doesn't close at arrival. Renewals go in before the permit expires, with up-to-date payroll, tax and insurance evidence; a change of employer or the family joining later continues in the same file, with the same owner.

    You: Tell us about changes as they happen

The platform

Software where it helps, people where it counts

The HR view

One place to manage every international hire.

Every hire at a clear stage, the documents still missing beside it, and permits close to expiry flagged before they slip. HR follows the whole case; the employee sees only their own documents and updates.

Who answers your employee

Your employee is never left wondering who to ask. Quick questions get an instant answer, and anything about the case itself goes to a person who knows the file.

Sofia, our AI assistant

Her name is Greek for wisdom (σοφία).

Straight away, day or night

Answers general questions about permits, tax (AFM) and social security (AMKA) numbers and everyday life in Greece. She gives general guidance, not legal advice, and she can't see case files.

Your case manager

Within one business day

Questions about the case itself — documents, appointments, what happens next — go to the case manager handling the file, through messages in the portal.

Scope

What Mazi does — and doesn't

What Mazi does

  • Coordinates permit applications, from documents to case tracking
  • Licensed Greek counsel files and represents where required
  • Housing search, lease negotiation and utility setup
  • Tax number (AFM), social security (AMKA), banking and school enrolment
  • Tracks deadlines and employer duties — ERGANI, social security

What Mazi doesn't do

  • Act as a law firm or give legal advice ourselves
  • Guarantee approval — Greek authorities decide
  • Employ candidates — we are not a staffing agency
  • Own property — housing is coordination only
  • Pay authorities anything without your written approval
