How Greek road tax is worked out
Law 5177/2025 keeps three tables, and which one applies depends only on the car's first registration in Greece or another EU country. A used import from Germany keeps its German date.
Up to 31/10/2010: engine size
A flat amount per engine-size class, in three columns by year of first registration.
| Class | cc | ≤2000 | 2001-2005 | 2006+ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Α | ≤ 300 | €22 | €22 | €22 |
| Β | 301–785 | €55 | €55 | €55 |
| Γ | 786–1,071 | €120 | €120 | €120 |
| Δ | 1,072–1,357 | €135 | €135 | €135 |
| Ε | 1,358–1,548 | €225 | €240 | €255 |
| ΣΤ | 1,549–1,738 | €250 | €265 | €280 |
| Ζ | 1,739–1,928 | €280 | €300 | €320 |
| Η | 1,929–2,357 | €615 | €630 | €690 |
| Θ | 2,358–3,000 | €820 | €840 | €920 |
| Ι | 3,001–4,000 | €1,025 | €1,050 | €1,150 |
| Κ | ≥ 4,001 | €1,230 | €1,260 | €1,380 |
1/11/2010 - 31/12/2020: NEDC CO2
The row's rate multiplies all of the car's grams, not just those inside the row. Up to 90 g/km, nothing.
| g/km | € per gram |
|---|---|
| 0–90 | 0.00 |
| 91–100 | 0.90 |
| 101–120 | 0.98 |
| 121–140 | 1.20 |
| 141–160 | 1.85 |
| 161–180 | 2.45 |
| 181–200 | 2.78 |
| 201–250 | 3.05 |
| > 250 | 3.72 |
From 1/1/2021: WLTP CO2
The same method on a different scale, because WLTP measures more grams for the same car. Up to 122 g/km, nothing.
| g/km | € per gram |
|---|---|
| 0–122 | 0.00 |
| 123–139 | 0.64 |
| 140–166 | 0.70 |
| 167–208 | 0.85 |
| 209–224 | 1.87 |
| 225–240 | 2.20 |
| 241–260 | 2.50 |
| 261–280 | 2.70 |
| > 280 | 2.85 |
The law's WLTP table says «Τιμή» without a unit. We apply it in euro per gram, like the NEDC table and as the market applies it.
Hybrids and electric cars
Registered by 31/10/2010, electric cars and hybrids up to 1,548 cc are exempt, and larger hybrids pay 60% of the equivalent conventional car. From 1/11/2010 they are all on the CO2 table like any car, so an electric car pays nothing.
Paying road tax by the month
It is not an instalment plan. If the car was put into electronic immobilisation before 1 January, from 1 April you can lift it once a year and pay only the twelfths for the months left until December. A started month counts in full. When the months run out, AADE puts the car back into immobilisation. If you sell or export it during that time, the full year is owed.
Deadline and fines
The 2027 tax is paid between 1 November and 31 December 2026. Paid in January it carries 25% more, in February 50%. After that, or if unpaid or part-paid, there is a fine equal to the tax and never under €30. The deadline can be extended by ministerial decision.
