Our Rebuke to Greece’s Plan to Bring 50,000 Workers From India

Written By: KTE Executive Board
You may have seen by now that Greece is one step away from formalizing an agreement with India’s government to supply 50,000 Indian workers each year to bolster specific sectors of the Greek economy. These people will be both unskilled and skilled workers, and will likely be the recipient of lower tax obligations, compared to those of Greek citizens. The idea that Greece is considering the strategic import of tens of thousands of foreign workers – instead of trying to attract the nearly five million Greeks living abroad – is puzzling, to say the least.
How to (really) get your Greek ID card

If you already have your Greek Citizenship, owning a Greek ID card is extremely helpful and useful. The new Greek ID card is digitized and scans at governmental security checkpoints in all EU member countries, which means shorter lines at airports and being considered an EU passport holder entering your home country for all member states. Of course, you can also use it as a form of ID anywhere in Greece, which is good because it never hurts to have the authorities view you as more of a local and not as a tourist.
