How the process unfolds

- We fill in the M1/M7 paperwork and stack the supporting file
- We lodge it at the correct DOY, or through your tax representative
- Your nine-digit AFM is issued and ready to put to work
In Greece
Sorting the applying for your afm in Greece means dealing with Your competent DOY (Greek tax office) and its limited appointments. We monitor the system daily and handle the paperwork for residents from Patras and Mykonos.
Frequently asked questions
With a complete file in hand, the DOY typically issues the AFM the very same day. The time goes into assembling the right documents — and that part is ours to manage.
Not at all. A power of attorney lets us obtain the AFM for you while you remain overseas.
Issuing the AFM itself carries no state charge; our role is the preparation, filing and representation that get it done correctly.
