Tax Advisory & Compliance in Greece
Expert tax advisory services in Greece: strategic tax planning, income and corporate tax returns, VAT compliance, and cross-border taxation. Serving businesses and individuals from Thessaloniki since 1991.
Our tax advisory team in Thessaloniki helps individuals and businesses navigate every layer of Greek tax law. We handle annual income tax and corporate tax returns, VAT compliance, withholding taxes, and strategic tax planning tailored to each client's situation. Whether you are a Greek company seeking to optimize your effective tax rate, a foreign investor entering the Greek market, or an individual relocating under one of Greece's tax incentive regimes, we provide hands-on guidance from initial planning through filing and beyond. Our advisors monitor legislative changes published by AADE (the Independent Authority for Public Revenue) and proactively adjust your tax strategy so you stay compliant and never overpay. We also coordinate with auditors, legal counsel, and international tax specialists when cross-border structures require multi-jurisdictional expertise.
Who it’s for: Greek businesses of all sizes (IKE, EPE, AE, OE/EE), sole traders, freelancers, foreign investors, multinational subsidiaries operating in Greece, real estate investors, digital nomads, retirees, and new residents applying for Greece's tax incentive programmes under Articles 5A, 5B, and 5C.
Scope of Services
Income Tax Filing
Preparation and electronic filing of annual income tax returns for individuals (E1 form), legal entities (N form), and sole proprietors via the AADE portal. We calculate liability across Greece's progressive brackets (9% to 44%), apply all eligible deductions and credits, and ensure timely submission to avoid penalties.
Corporate Tax Planning
Strategic tax planning for corporations registered in Greece, covering the 22% corporate income tax rate, dividend distribution tax (5%), and available incentives under the Development Law and R&D provisions. We advise on profit retention strategies, intercompany transactions, and group structuring to reduce overall tax exposure.
VAT Advisory & Compliance
End-to-end VAT advisory for businesses operating in Greece: monthly and quarterly VAT return preparation, management of the 24%, 13%, and 6% rate tiers, intra-community supply reporting (VIES), VAT refund applications, and reduced rates for Aegean island businesses. We also handle VAT registration for foreign companies trading in Greece.
International Tax & Transfer Pricing
Cross-border tax advisory for multinational companies and foreign businesses with Greek operations. We apply Greece's 57+ double tax treaties, prepare transfer pricing documentation in line with OECD guidelines, and advise on EU Pillar Two (global minimum tax) compliance, permanent establishment risks, and withholding tax optimization.
Tax Audit Defence & Disputes
Full representation before AADE during tax audits, preparation of responses to preliminary audit findings, filing of administrative appeals with the Dispute Resolution Directorate (DED), and coordination with legal counsel for tax court proceedings. Our goal is to resolve disputes efficiently and protect your interests at every stage.
