Greece’s Independent Public Revenue Authority (AADE) is performing its nationwide audit campaign, code-named "Theros," targeting popular tourist destinations and summer businesses. The goal: to stamp out tax evasion and ensure transparent financial practices across the country.

From June 1 to July 15, AADE conducted 9,140 inspections. The results were striking—over 3,100 businesses were found violating tax rules, mostly in the catering and retail sectors. A total of 87 businesses were temporarily shut down, some for multiple infractions.

They find 3,120 tax violations identified across the country, 87 business closures lasting 48+ hours, and 173 cases of improper POS system usage, resulting in fines totalling €2.31 million. They found out about hiding thousands of receipts—worth over €149,000 combined.

All flagged businesses are now undergoing in-depth audits covering several years of financial activity. AADE says inspections will continue throughout the summer to protect consumers and maintain fiscal integrity. The main focus is respecting fiscal rules and issuing receipts to consumers. The failure was regarding reporting fiscal receipts, not processing transactions, and failure to transmit tax data.
