Legal Requirements for Airbnb & Short-Term Rental Hosts in Greece (2026)

Every property rented on a short-term basis must be registered in the AADE Short-Term Rental Registry. The Property Registry Number (Α.Μ.Α.) must be displayed on every listing on platforms like Airbnb and Booking.com.

The property owner must be registered on TAXISnet with an active Tax Identification Number (ΑΦΜ/TIN). The short-term rental activity must be declared in the tax registry (KAD).

Property owners are required to register guests (full name, passport/ID details) through the gov.gr platform or local authorities. This obligation applies for every check-in.

Short-term rental income is taxed as property income (starting at 15%). If you manage 3 or more properties, the activity may be subject to VAT (13% for accommodation services).
