In addition, the suspension of the submission of new applications for residence permits as well as applications for renewal of residence permits by citizens of the Russian Federation and Belarus, which fall into the category of “business executives” of Article 17 of Law 4251/2014, is revoked.
However, until further notice, the suspension of submission and approval of new applications for residence permits of Articles 16 and 20 B of Law 4251/2014 of citizens of the Russian Federation and Belarus is maintained, including, on the one hand, their family members and, on the other hand, applications on certification of investment.
With regard to the suspension of new applications, it is noted that the following are excluded: a) citizens of the Russian Federation or Belarus, who are members of a family of investors of another nationality, and b) citizens of the Russian Federation or Belarus, who are members of a family of investors of their nationalities, of the Russian Federation or Belarus, who have already applied for a renewal of their residence permit, or are already in possession of a valid residence permit.

In this context, the European Commission adopted its Recommendation -Number C (2022) 2028 (28.3.2022) – which was taken into account in the adoption of this Decision.
