Today marks the opening of the application by the Independent Authority for Public Revenue (AADE) for the submission of more than 6.5 million tax returns in Greece. This annual event requires taxpayers to meet specific submission deadlines, ensuring that the process is orderly and efficient. As of last Friday, the application for income tax declarations from legal entities has already been in operation, indicating the preparedness of the system for the influx of submissions in the coming weeks.

The timeline for submission is clearly defined, with important dates leading up to the final deadline for all taxpayers. Notably, approximately 1.5 million employees and retirees are exempt from having to fill in their tax declarations due to the pre-filled nature of their tax returns provided by the AADE. However, these individuals must carefully review the accuracy of the data included in their returns before the automatic submission process commences after Easter, ensuring that all information is correct to avoid potential complications.

As the tax return submission portal, TAXIS, opens, it becomes imperative for taxpayers to verify their personal details and rectify any errors or omissions before the deadline of April 20. Should there be no interventions, tax declarations will be automatically submitted as scheduled, underscoring the importance for individuals to remain vigilant and proactive regarding their tax responsibilities during this period.
