Greece is part of the Schengen area, so attendance at the Pan-Hellenic Fair for Agriculture & Livestock follows standard Schengen entry rules. EU/EEA citizens and nationals of visa-waiver countries (UK, USA, Canada, Australia, Japan, South Korea, Brazil and others) may enter visa-free for up to 90 days in any 180-day period with a passport valid at least three months beyond departure. Nationals of countries without a waiver agreement — including India, China, Turkey and South Africa — need a Schengen Type C short-stay visa, applied for at the Greek consulate or visa centre covering their place of residence; a HELEXPO or exhibitor invitation letter and confirmed Larisa accommodation strengthen the file. Apply at least four to six weeks before travel, carry proof of accommodation and onward travel, and note that visa-waiver travellers will also need a valid ETIAS authorisation once the EU system goes live.
Estimated cost: Varies by visa type and nationality (check official site).
Processing: Varies by nationality; apply several weeks before travel.
Apply at the Greek consulate or visa centre covering your place of residence. A HELEXPO or exhibitor invitation letter plus confirmed Larisa accommodation and travel insurance support the application. Children aged 6–12 pay EUR 35; under 6 are free. Carry proof of accommodation, return travel and, for business visitors, an invitation or meeting confirmation. ETIAS pre-travel authorisation applies
