Hi,


I am from Turkey, all my four grandparents are from Thessaloniki. There is a rumour that they are Turks from Greece who migrated to Anatolia but I guess they are different because my DNA results has shown that I am 77% Greek. However, my grandparents are registered as of Turkish ethnicity in the records in Greece.


As for acquiring Greek passport by ancestry, as far as I know, only people of Greek ethnic origin can get a Greek passport. My question is, if I apply for Greek passport with all birth certificates of my grandparents and my DNA results, will I be able to get a Greek passport?
