Harbor fees cut down
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
Following months of controversy regarding the new Greek circulation tax, the Greek government has introduced two changes that have cut harbour dues.
Until August 1st, harbor dues in Greece were collected by the Hellenic Coast Guard, colloquially known as Port Police or PP. Fees comprised of an entry charge (paid per visit) and a berthing charge, payable from midnight to midnight for each day the boat was in port. They were charged per metre LOA, plus VAT.
The new changes include; entry fees have been dropped, and berthing fees will now be collected by the municipal or local authority (Limeniko Tameio) responsible for managing the quay. Advance payments for a month or more will earn discounts.
Marina-Dock fees, which broadly seem to include any quays or pontoons privately managed will be collected as before, by the marina-dock operator.
