Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate 30-day payment deadlines for invoices in Greece, taking public holidays into account?
According to Greek law, payment deadlines are calculated in calendar days, not only business days. However, if the deadline falls on a public holiday or weekend, payment is accepted on the next business day. For invoices issued on December 25, 2026, the 30-day deadline will expire on January 24, 2027 (next business day after Christmas).
What are the implications of public holidays on legal notices and deadlines for claiming rights?
Greek law provides that legal deadlines falling on a public holiday or non-working day (Saturday/Sunday) are automatically extended until the next business day. For example, a 14-day notice from April 8, 2026 (Good Friday) will expire on April 24, 2026, since Easter days are not counted.
How do Greek public holidays affect public contract competition deadlines (30 business days)?
In public contracts with European funding, the 30 business day deadline is calculated only in business days, excluding weekends and official public holidays. If the deadline begins on May 1, 2026 (Labour Day), counting starts the next business day, and the 13 public holidays in 2026 after May must be excluded from the calculation.
What are the 14 official public holiday dates in Greece for 2026 that affect business days?
The 14 official public holidays in 2026 are: New Year's Day (January 1), Epiphany (January 6), Clean Monday (February 23), Annunciation (March 25), Good Friday (April 10), Easter (April 12), Easter Monday (April 13), Labour Day (May 1), Pentecost (May 31), Holy Spirit Day (June 1), Assumption of Mary (August 15), Ochi Day (October 28), Christmas Day (December 25), and Boxing Day (December 26).
How do I calculate business days for projects starting in late April or late May 2026?
Projects starting on April 27 have 2 public holidays within 30 days (May 1 and May 31/June 1), so 30 calendar days equal approximately 26 business days. Projects starting on June 2 have fewer public holidays in the following 30 calendar days. It is recommended to use a calendar reference for accurate calculations during these periods.
