Greece Intensifies VAT Inspections: Heavy Fines for Non-Compliant Businesses and Software Providers

  • Greek tax authorities are increasing inspections and using electronic cross-checks to fight VAT evasion.
  • Businesses not complying with EFT-POS, IRIS, and cash register connectivity rules face fines of €10,000 (single-entry) or €20,000 (double-entry), with reduced fines for small settlements and islands.
  • Fines of up to €20,000 apply to businesses failing to connect POS and IRIS systems as required by law.
  • Companies selling or supporting non-compliant software risk severe penalties, including possible license revocation.
  • Inspections focus on proper transaction reporting and detecting attempts to bypass systems using standalone POS terminals.
