Subject: Recreational and Daily Tour Cruise Ships Fee (TEPAI) in Greece
Ref.No.: F 280 / AS 390
Dear all,
The Embassy of Greece in Tallinn would like to inform you that since May 9, 2019, the so called
Recreational and Daily Tour Cruise Ships Fee (TEPAI) related to maritime tourism has entered into force
in Greece for the first time.
The TEPAI-Fee is imposed on all private and professional recreational ships (including recreational ships
classified as professional subjects to laws applicable in another country) and professional daily tour
cruise ships of a total length of over 7m, regardless of flag, in Greek territorial waters. Ships entering
Greek territorial waters must pay the TEPAI on time, either before their arrival (hence from the country
of residence) or, at the latest, until their first day of entry, while ships remaining in Greek territorial
waters must pay the TEPAI on time before the beginning of each month of their stay. The TEPAI is
calculated – at the minimum – for one month, regardless of the time that the ship remains in Greek
territorial waters during that month. The ship may depart from Greek territorial waters within three days
after the end of the month for which the TEPAI has been paid, without the obligation to pay for the
month of its departure.
Payment of the TEPAI is made through the electronic application “eTEPAI”, hosted at the website of
IAPR, www.aade.gr/polites/etepai.
Information concerning TEPAI is available on the IAPR website https://www.aade.gr/polites/etepai,
where you can also find the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s), both in Greek and in English, and the
relevant brochure, translated into Greek, English, French, German, Turkish and Italian.
We kindly ask you to inform your competent professional or non-professional members, related to
maritime tourism in general, and notify to them the attached informative material so as to be
acquainted on this issue.
We remain at your disposal for any clarification or information.
