Immigrant Visas

The Immigrant Visa Unit provides services to Greek and third-country nationals who wish to immigrate to the United States.

Hours of Operation:  Currently the IV Unit is open to the public on Mondays and Fridays only, from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm.  The rest of the week we deal only with scheduled cases by appointment.

Contact us: All inquiries must be sent in writing to us at: athensconsul@state.gov.  Inquiries on specific cases are given priority over general inquiries or questions about potential IV eligibility.  For general questions about how to qualify or apply for an IV, we recommend you first see the Immigrant Visa section at travel.state.gov.
