Tratamiento en Grecia para Ciudadanía española

If you want to go to Greece for treatment and stay there for less than 90 days, you need to issue a short-term visa type C.

If your medical therapy or treatment is expected to last longer than 90 days, you should instead apply for a national (long-term) type D visa for medical treatment in the relevant country, which allows you to stay longer.

Patients from third countries that have not reached a visa-free agreement with the members of the Schengen area must obtain this visa before flying to any of the Schengen countries.
