Maik:
Aye, when you and I arrived on Kef the internet was in its infancy and information was pinned to telephone poles. Reliable information was as common as gold teeth in a goat. Communication is now so much easier but no more effective.

Jolly Roger:
The penalties for not having a DEKRA certificate (cruising log) have been reduced according to the RYA. For not having one, the fine is now €1000 and for not renewing it is now €500. Penalties previously ranged from €5,000 to €25,000!!!
After visits to the Port Authority and Tax Office, I am now legal.

The new tax TE.P.AH has still not been implemented.

Jolly Roger:

--- Quote ---Greece has announced the scrapping of the DEKPA cruising permit in a draft bill for which consultations close on 27 February 2020. The bill will be voted on shortly afterwards and becomes law within one month of being officially published.
The DEKPA was never a popular imposition with either the Greek authorities nor the visiting yachtsmen, putting regulations in place with requirements that were sometimes difficult to meet. For example, getting documents stamped on due dates when present in the country, and being subject to hefty fines.

After jumping through a few hoops to get this document last year and trying to renew it recently, it is no longer required.
