Agriculture, construction, hospitality and manufacturing workers — sourced in Pakistan and deployed to Greece through the employer invitation and national D visa route.
Greece needs far more workers than it can find locally — tourism, construction and farming all report shortages, and the state admits tens of thousands of non-EU workers a year through an annual quota. Send the pack below and we reply within one business day with a feasibility note, a shortlist plan and a realistic week-count.
Best case: 8 weeks
Typical: 8–14 weeks
Depends on: invitation approval and consulate appointments
Zero to the employer from us: sourcing, screening, trade-testing, shortlist pack.
Employer / host-country costs: work permit / visa fees, medical where the destination requires it, air ticket (unless contract says otherwise), wage, food, housing, insurance as per local law.
Replacement: if a worker fails medical after selection or absconds in the agreed window, we re-source at no extra agency fee. Ticket / visa re-issue follows the demand letter.
Licence and ISO certificates are sent on request with the feasibility note.

Greek employers are short of hands across tourism, construction and agriculture, and the annual quota for non-EU workers only covers part of the gap. Renaissance Recruitment Inc. sources, trade-tests and processes Pakistani workers for Greek employers, handling all Pakistan-side compliance so your people arrive ready to work.
In outline (the employer should confirm current rules with its Greek adviser):
Every Pakistani worker going to Greece must be registered with the Bureau of Emigration & Overseas Employment (BEOE) and cleared by the Protectorate of Emigrants. It is a legal requirement, and doing it properly is what keeps a batch from stalling at the airport.
Browse by role, or tell us your exact requirement and we will match trade-tested candidates.
Agricultural / farm workers & harvest crews
Construction helpers, masons & steel fixers
Welders & fabricators
Electricians
Hotel, kitchen & housekeeping staff
Factory & production workers
Heavy & light vehicle drivers
Petrol station attendants
Law 5275/2026 has changed seasonal recruitment of third-country workers. Employers now pre-register seasonal positions, prove accommodation and submit return-travel guarantees before a visa issues. Fines for employing a worker without a valid permit have risen. RRI checks each step before a candidate is trade-tested for a Greek role.
Confirm that the role is open to third-country nationals under current labour-market needs, as published by the Ministry of Labour, before you recruit.
Two seasonal routes exist: the tourism permit and the agricultural-economy permit, both under the E-6 seasonal residence permit. Each needs a national seasonal-work visa and a seasonal contract with a Greek employer before the residence permit is issued (mitos.gov.gr).
The Greek employer. The employer files the invitation (metaklisi) request for named or numbered third-country workers within the annual quota, and once approved the workers apply for a national D visa at the Greek consulate. We handle everything on the Pakistan side.
Agriculture and seasonal harvest work, construction, hospitality and tourism (kitchen, housekeeping, cleaning), manufacturing and logistics.
The Greek approval and consular visa stages drive the timeline. Pakistan-side work runs in parallel. Plan for roughly 8–14 weeks for a first batch, and we give a dated plan for your specific requirement within one business day.
No. Sourcing, screening, trade-testing and the shortlist pack cost the employer nothing from us. Permit and visa fees, tickets, wage and housing follow Greek law and the contract.
Yes. Send the season dates and headcount early, because seasonal quotas and consulate appointments fill up. We can phase arrivals to match your harvest calendar.
