A Greek Tax Registration number (also referred to as “AFM” in Greece) is required for all persons and legal entities transacting in Greece, even if such persons are not physically in Greece and/ or are nor tax residents of Greece.
The application and issuance of a Greek tax registration number for persons who are not Greek tax residents is effected through a special procedure and at a specific Greek tax authority. The appointment of a Greek tax resident as tax representative for communication purposes of the Greek authorities with the non- tax resident is required.
Our team may assist you to apply for a Greek tax number, or apply on your behalf, without requiring you to travel to Greece. We also undertake the issuance of online access codes for remote access to the services of the Greek tax authorities, and we may be appointed as tax representatives for our clients.
Additionally, our office assists non- tax residents of Greece to transfer their tax residence in Greece. It is worth noting that the Greek Income Tax Code offers non-tax residents of Greece incentives in order to transfer their tax residence in Greece. These incentives aim specific categories of persons: investors, pensioners and employees or entrepreneurs.
