If you plan on relocating to Greece, then you may have heard someone mention "TaxisNet" during your process of setting yourself up (or your family) in this country.
TaxisNet is a government website with different capabilities, necessary for both Greek nationals and foreign citizens living in Greece. In other words, it is a system that keeps an archive of your personal details, including important documents such as leases, contracts, and tax filings.
For anyone wishing to become a resident of Greece, they must open an account on TaxisNet.
The main purpose of TaxisNet is to fill out and submit tax returns, especially if you are employed by a Greek company in Greece or if you have set up your own business here. TaxisNet acts as an important archive that keeps and updates all of your personal information, including your financial circumstances that may need to be shown to the tax authorities.
On TaxisNet, you can print out your tax clearance certificates as well as declare property rentals. Usually, when it involves property rentals or declare property purchases, you will need your individual credentials to log in, and electronically retrieve and accept property contracts under your name. The way in which you collect your credentials, is through the tax office when you obtain your AFM, or Greek Tax Identification Number.
If you need assistance with obtaining your TaxisNet credentials alongside your AFM, contact our team or read our post about obtaining a TIN, or Greek Tax Number.
In order to open an account on TaxisNet, you must obtain an AFM, or a Greek Tax Number. Obtaining an AFM is crucial for obtaining your credentials to access the TaxisNet system. The way in which you can obtain your AFM is either by visiting a foreign tax office in Greece, or hire a tax representative in order to open an account and give you your username and password.
