Typically the TAXISNet platform for submitting 2020 returns will not be open until May 2021 so people with appointments earlier than that will only have their 2019 returns, i.e. submitted in 2020 for 2019 income. P&B, did you have a blue certificate and had it been issued more than 5 years befo...

The government claims that there are only 8 cases of the variant in Greece and they all came in from outside, either from the UK or Dubai. There have been 42 new cases altogether ...

I have just purchased a health plan from Stavros at http://www.insurance-greece.com/ I asked him about the policy excess debate and he said that two clients in Athens had just submitted their plans (containing a 20% excess; yes, expressed as a percentage in each case) and they were accepted.

The virus was apparently brought in by a German national who has now left the country, and all four cases were contracted in a local baker's shop. This wo...
