Greece: visa decisions in Tunisia
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate | Multiple-entry share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 2,775 | 1,172 | 1,564 | 57.1% | 43.9% |
| 2024 | 2,105 | 1,132 | 950 | 45.6% | 25.9% |
| 2025 | 1,785 | 1,171 | 601 | 33.9% | 19.6% |
In 2025, Greece’s embassy and consulates in Tunisia (Tunis) received 1,785 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 1,171. The refusal rate was 33.9%. The refusal rate fell by 11.7 points from 45.6% in 2024, a clear improvement for applicants. Applications fell by 15% compared with 2024 (2,105).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 19.6% of the applications lodged in Tunisia that year, from 15.4% at the consulates of France to 46.3% at those of the Czech Republic. Greece’s consulates worldwide refused 14.5%. Greece was the 10th most applied-for Schengen state in Tunisia.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Tunisia, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
