the tax returns 2021 - The deadline for submitting tax returns ( 2021) is extended to August 30 - 2022,

By the legislative order of the Ministry of Finance, the deadline for submitting tax returns is extended until August 30, 2022.

Despite the fact that this year the electronic platform for submitting personal income tax returns started operating on March 30, 2022, and until yesterday 81% of tax returns had been submitted, this time extension was deemed necessary due to the special circumstances that prevail, in order to facilitate taxpaying citizens, accountants, and tax professionals by exhausting any time frame for an extension.

The Minister of Finance, Mr. Christos Staikouras, and the Deputy Minister of Tax Policy and Public Property, Mr. Apostolos Vesyropoulos made the following statement:

The Government, is fully aware of the difficulties faced by citizens and the increased workload of accountants and tax experts in recent times, due to the energy crisis which requires the submission of applications to various electronic aid platforms, but also due to the pandemic which leads to delays in the work of citizens and accountants who are ill, proceeds to extend the deadline for submitting tax returns until August 30. This is the last extension given so that everyone can complete the process of submitting statements and be consistent in their obligations.
