Greece invoicing rules

  • Every invoice is transmitted to the AADE myDATA platform, which assigns a unique registration number (MARK) that is printed on the document.
  • Greek VAT numbers are the nine-digit ΑΦΜ, written with the prefix EL rather than GR in intra-EU trade.
  • The 13% rate covers items such as some food and energy, and 6% applies to listed goods such as medicines and books.
  • Invoices are numbered within series, and a cancelled or corrected invoice is handled with a credit note that is also sent to myDATA.

E-invoicing, simplified invoices and record keeping

B2B e-invoicing through certified providers became mandatory on 2 February 2026 for businesses with 2023 revenue above €1 million, with all other businesses following from 1 October 2026.
