Greek requirements

Plan the national formalities before reaching the port.

TEPAI and eTEPAI

TEPAI applies to private and professional leisure vessels over 7 metres while they are in Greek territorial waters, regardless of flag. Arrange the eTEPAI application and payment in good time and keep the confirmation available aboard.

Greek Transit Log

A Transit Log may be required for foreign-flagged private pleasure vessels over 7 metres, particularly third-country vessels and yachts using temporary admission. The process is digital and depends on flag, ownership, habitual residence, VAT or Union status and intended use.

Schengen and passport control

Passport control is most relevant when arriving from or departing to a non-Schengen country. Crew nationality, visa status and time already spent in Schengen can affect the process.

VAT and temporary admission

Carry evidence of the yachtโ€™s VAT, Union or customs status where relevant. Non-EU flagged yachts and yachts under temporary admission should have their position reviewed before arrival or departure.

FAQ

Greece yacht-clearance questions

What is yacht clearance in Greece?

Yacht clearance can involve Port Police or the Hellenic Coast Guard, Customs and Immigration. The required steps depend on the route, yacht flag and customs status, use of the vessel, and the nationalities aboard.

Do I need a yacht-clearance agent in Greece?

Not every yacht must appoint an agent, but local support can be useful for an international arrival or departure, non-EU yacht, temporary admission, Transit Log question, mixed-nationality crew or urgent timing.

Which Greek port should I choose?

Choose the first or last Greek port relevant to the voyage and state where the yacht will actually berth. If your location is not listed, select Other port in the request form.

Does TEPAI apply to foreign yachts?

TEPAI applies to private and professional leisure vessels over 7 metres while in Greek territorial waters, regardless of flag. Keep the application and payment confirmation available aboard.

Will my yacht need a Greek Transit Log?

A Transit Log may apply to foreign-flagged private pleasure vessels, especially third-country yachts and yachts using temporary admission. The correct treatment depends on the yacht and owner or user circumstances.

When is passport control required?

Passport control is especially relevant when entering or leaving the Schengen area. Crew nationality, visa status and time already spent in Schengen can affect the process.

What documents should I prepare?

Prepare passports, yacht registration, insurance, crew list, previous clearance when issued, TEPAI and Transit Log information where applicable, and evidence of VAT, Union or customs status where relevant.

What does EC GLOBAL PROMOTIONS LTD do?
