Greece’s Ministry of Finance announced in a press release (“Specification of the economic initiatives presented by the Prime Minister at the Thessaloniki International Fair”) on September 19, 2023, that the Ministry and the Greek tax authority, AADE, have started a dialogue with the European Commission to discuss the conditions required for Greece to implement a nationwide e-invoicing mandate.

Some of the key points that were communicated were that the e-invoicing mandate will involve a phased roll-out based on turnover, accredited e-invoicing service providers based on the existing framework will be involved in the process, and the current e-invoicing tool, “Timologio”, provided for free on the myDATA platform might be expanded as a centralized method of issuing invoices.

The e-invoicing mandate would be a separate framework and obligation to the existing myDATA mandate.
