Your MT citizenship gives you freedom of movement to this destination under EU Treaty rights and the EEA Agreement (Directive 2004/38/EC). This is more than visa-free entry: you may enter with a valid passport or national ID card, stay without a visa, and take up residence, employment, self-employment, or study with no permit. After three months you register with local authorities if the country requires it: automatic if you're working or self-employed, but if you're economically inactive (retired, studying, or otherwise not working) you must also hold comprehensive sickness insurance and sufficient resources so you don't become a burden on the host state (Directive 2004/38/EC, Article 7). Your spouse/registered partner and dependent family members can accompany or join you, including non-EU/EEA family members (who may need an entry visa but cannot be charged for the residence right itself). No onward or return ticket is required.

Greece (GR) restricts or bans the import of: codeine-based medications. The risk is real — travellers have been detained at customs for over-the-counter products that are routine elsewhere. If you take any prescription medication, look up the active ingredient against the restricted list above before booking. Always carry the prescription bottle plus a doctor's letter naming the medication and the condition it treats. Adding your medications to your profile (optional) lets us tell you specifically which of yours match. Greece restricts codeine; carry prescription.
