Greece is moving forward with its digital compliance plans. The latest step? The e-transport framework, which introduces digital tracking of goods alongside e-invoicing and the myDATA platform.
We’ve covered the journey so far in earlier blogs:
Now, Greece’s Ministry of Economy and Finance and the IAPR have updated the rollout plan for e-transport.
New phase deadlines
Phase 1 – submission of transport documents
- Optional until 1 June 2025 for companies with €200,000+ turnover in certain sectors
- Mandatory for them from 2 June 2025
- Mandatory for all other myDATA-subject companies from 1 December 2025
Phase 2 – real-time tracking of goods
- Optional: 1 August – 30 November 2025
- Mandatory: from 1 December 2025
What changes for businesses
Unlike e-invoicing, which tracks financial data, e-transport focuses on goods movement. Companies must report transport documents and delivery status digitally, in real-time.
This impacts businesses with:
- Physical distribution in Greece
- Operations in regulated sectors
- ERP systems not yet integrated with myDATA
How to prepare?
- Adapt systems for e-transport reporting
- Align with the e-invoicing deadline
- Automate where possible
- Partner with experts to ensure readiness
Final thoughts
The extended deadlines give companies room to breathe — but also signal that full digital oversight is around the corner. With e-invoicing and e-transport working together, compliance in Greece is becoming both broader and more connected.
Take this time to assess where you stand and where you need to go. A proactive approach now will pay off when real-time reporting becomes business as usual.
