🇬🇷 GOBL Greece Tax Regime

Greece uses the myDATA and Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 formats for their e-invoicing/tax-reporting system.

Example GR GOBL files can be found in the examples (YAML uncalculated documents) and examples/out (JSON calculated envelopes) subdirectories.

Greece specifics

VAT categories

Greece has three VAT rates: standard, reduced and super-reduced. Each of these rates are reduced by a 30% on the islands of Leros, Lesbos, Kos, Samos and Chios. The tax authority identifies each rate with a specific VAT category.

In GOBL, the IAPR VAT category code must be set using the gr-iapr-vat-cat extension of a line's tax to one of the codes:

Code	Description	GOBL Rate
1	Standard rate	standard
2	Reduced rate	reduced
3	Super-reduced rate	super-reduced
4	Standard rate (Island)	standard+island
5	Reduced rate (Island)	reduced+island
6	Super-reduced rate (Island)	super-reduced+island
7	Without VAT	exempt
8	Records without VAT

Please, note that GOBL will automatically set the proper gr-iapr-vat-cat code and tax percent automatically when the line tax uses any of the GOBL rates specified in the table above. For example:

{
  "$schema": "https://gobl.org/draft-0/bill/invoice",
  // ...
  "lines": [
    {
      "i": 1,
      "quantity": "20",
      "item": {
        "name": "Υπηρεσίες Ανάπτυξης",
        "price": "90.00",
      },
      "sum": "1800.00",
      "taxes": [
        {
          "cat": "VAT",
          "rate": "standard+island"
        }
      ],
      "total": "1800.00"
    }
  ],
}

VAT exemptions

Greece invoices can be exempt of VAT for different causes and the tax authority require a specific cause code to be provided.

In a GOBL invoice, the rate of a line's tax need to be set to exempt, and the ext map's gr-iapr-exemption property needs to be set to one of these codes:

"lines": [
  {
    "i": 1,
    "quantity": "20",
    "item": {
      "name": "Υπηρεσίες Ανάπτυξης",
      "price": "90.00",
    },
    "sum": "1800.00",
    "taxes": [
      {
        "cat": "VAT",
        "rate": "exempt",
        "ext": {
          "gr-iapr-exemption": "30"
        }
      }
    ],
    "total": "1800.00"
  }
]

Payment Methods

The IAPR requires invoices to specify a payment method code. In a GOBL invoice, the payment means is set using the key field in the payment instructions. The following table lists all the IAPR payment methods and how GOBL will map from the payment instructions key to each of them:

Code	Name	GOBL Payment Instruction Key
1	Domestic Payments Account Number	credit-transfer
2	Foreign Payments Account Number	credit-transfer+foreign
3	Cash	cash
4	Check	cheque
5	On credit	promissory-note
6	Web Banking	online
7	POS / e-POS	card

For example:

"payment": {
  "instructions": {
    "key": "credit-transfer+foreign" // Will set the IAPR Payment Method to "2"
  }
}
