Gov.gr digital portal adds special section for Greeks living abroad, including consular appointments platform

The government portal (www.gov.gr) has added a section focused on services to Greeks living abroad, including setting an appointment for an online meeting with a consulate officer (myConsulLive), the Ministers of Digital Governance Konstantinos Kyranakis and Deputy Foreign Minister George Kotsiras said on Thursday.

Following a meeting at the e-Governance ministry, an announcement said that www.gov.gr now has a section called “Apodimoi Ellines” that lists the most widely use services by those living briefly or permanently abroad. The section is also accessible through the “Politis kai Kathimerinotita” (Citizens and day-to-day life) link, with additional online services.

Kotsiras said the initiative follows the voting of the bill on lifting restrictions for Greeks to vote abroad, while Kyranakis highlighted the priority the e-Governance ministry has shown in establishing equal access for Greeks abroad.
