What the Kazakhstan visa rules mean for Greece travellers

Greece citizens can enter Kazakhstan without a visa and stay for up to 30 days. You only need a valid Greece passport at the border; immigration officers may still ask for a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and enough money for your stay. The 30-day limit usually counts calendar days from your arrival, so book your return flight inside that window.

The main option is the Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA), not mandatory during the pilot period.
