E-invoicing in Greece

Mandate plannedPeppol connectedUpdated January 2026

Greece is implementing mandatory B2B e-invoicing from February 2026 in phases — large businesses (>€1M revenue) first, then all businesses from October 2026. The myDATA platform serves as the clearance system, validating invoices and assigning unique MARK/UID identifiers. B2G delivery occurs via Peppol to the KED (National Interoperability Center).

TL;DR

Greece is planning e-invoicing using mydata_xml, en_16931, peppol_bis_3_0__for_b2g_delivery_ formats. Connected to the Peppol network for cross-border exchange.
