TAX TIPS

In terms of Greek tax law every person is required to submit a tax declaration stating the purchase of any property at the end of the tax year in which the property was purchased.
The greek tax year ends on 31 Dec and the deadline for the income and property tax declarations is normally the following May but that changes frequently.
The purpose of the declarations is to inform the tax authorities about all the details of the procces and prove that the money for the purchase were legally imported in Greece.
For all non-Greek residents this is done when your accountant attaches to the tax declaration the bank document "Attestation of Exchange Purchase" usually mentioned as the "Pink Slip" eventhough is not pink in some cases.
The pink slips are used to
1. Cover the purchase cost as a whole ( contract value , transfer tax, notary and attorney fees).
2. Cover the cost of the building project every year.
3. Cover the "benefit" or "assumed cost" according to greek tax law (house sq.mt, pool sq.mt, car cc , batlers and/or gardeners, paying back loans,etc) , after the project is completed.
