Relations between Vietnam and Greece are entering a new phase of development as both countries reaffirm their commitment to expanding cooperation across multiple sectors, including trade, investment, maritime affairs, tourism, and people-to-people exchanges.
Notably, alongside high-level government discussions, the two sides are also studying the possibility of launching a direct air route between Vietnam and Greece—a move expected to shorten geographical distance and facilitate travel for businesses, investors, and tourists between the two countries.
This is regarded as a positive signal at a time when Greece is attracting increasing attention from the international investment community.
Vietnam and Greece deepen bilateral cooperation
During his meeting with Greek Minister of Foreign Affairs George Gerapetritis, Deputy Prime Minister Le Minh Hung reaffirmed that Vietnam highly values its traditional friendship with Greece and wishes to further strengthen bilateral cooperation across various sectors.
Both sides agreed to enhance cooperation in:
- Trade and investment.
- Maritime affairs and logistics.
- Tourism.
- Education and training.
- Digital transformation.
- Energy.
- People-to-people exchanges.
In particular, both countries acknowledged that there remains significant potential to expand economic cooperation in the years ahead, especially as the EU–Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) continues to create favorable conditions for trade between Vietnam and European countries, including Greece.
Studying the possibility of a direct Vietnam–Greece flight
One of the developments attracting considerable attention from businesses and investors is the ongoing study of a direct air connection between Vietnam and Greece.
If implemented in the future, this route could deliver several important benefits:
- Shorter travel time between Vietnam and Greece.
- Stronger bilateral trade relations.
- Greater convenience for businesses conducting market research.
- Increased opportunities for two-way tourism.
- Easier travel for investors who frequently move between Vietnam and Europe.
For the business and investment community, direct air connectivity has always been an important consideration when expanding operations internationally.
Greece is becoming increasingly attractive to international investors
In recent years, Greece has not only experienced a strong economic recovery but has also emerged as one of Europe’s most attractive investment destinations.
The country continues to improve its investment environment through:
- Digital transformation of public services.
- Simplification of administrative procedures.
- Promotion of foreign direct investment.
- Development of transportation and logistics infrastructure.
- Expansion of real estate and tourism projects.
These reforms are helping create a more transparent, efficient, and investor-friendly business environment.
Greece Golden Visa remains an attractive option
Beyond its economic potential, Greece is also home to one of the most sought-after residency-by-investment programs in Europe.
Through the Greece Golden Visa Program, investors may obtain:
- Residence rights in Greece for the entire family.
- The ability to travel within the Schengen Area in accordance with applicable regulations.
- Ownership of real estate in one of Europe’s growing property markets.
- A foundation for long-term education, relocation, and international wealth management planning.
For many Vietnamese entrepreneurs, the strengthening of bilateral relations between Vietnam and Greece, together with the prospect of a future direct flight connection, could make business travel, market exploration, and overseas asset management in Greece even more convenient.
