We undertake the procedure for the Transfer of tax residence to the competent Tax Office.  

If you are a non-resident you must be transferred to the Tax Office of Foreign Tax Residents in order not to be taxed in Greece for your global income. A lot of attention needs  to paid because transnational treaties have been signed for the automatic exchange of information between countries. We undertake to represent you at the Tax Offices, to  carry out the process and to complete the transfer to the Tax Office of foreign tax residents directly and responsibly.  

Greeks who now have a permanent residence abroad (i.e. those who live in another country for more than 183 days) must change their tax residence at the Tax Office of  foreign tax residents. While the transfer process has become more complex than in previous years, some innovations have been introduced in the tax legislation affecting  these persons, facilitating the whole process.  

For the transfer to the competent Tax Office, the following supporting documents are required:  

1. Certificate of Residence for Tax Purposes
Duly authenticated and translated if required
or
Double Taxation Convention
Bilingual form, duly authenticated if required  

2. Contract of Employment Translated
3. Certificate of residence from the local community

4. Authorizations / Self Declarations

Acceptance of the Tax Representative
