Greece-specific Requirements

Invoice Type

The Greek tax authority (IAPR) requires the invoice type to be specified as part of the invoice. In GOBL, this type can be set using the gr-mydata-invoice-type extension in the tax section and setting the GOBL invoice type to other.

Alternatively, GOBL will set the extension for you based on the type and the tax tags you set in your GOBL invoice. The table below shows how this mapping is done:

Type	Description	GOBL Type	GOBL Tags
1.1	Sales Invoice	standard	goods
1.2	Sales Invoice/Intra-community Supplies	standard	goods, export, eu
1.3	Sales Invoice/Third Country Supplies	standard	goods, export
1.4	Sales Invoice/Sale on Behalf of Third Parties	standard	goods, self-billed
2.1	Service Rendered Invoice	standard	services
2.2	Intra-community Service Rendered Invoice	standard	services, export, eu
2.3	Third Country Service Rendered Invoice	standard	services, export
5.1	Credit Invoice/Associated	credit-note
11.1	Retail Sales Receipt	standard	goods, simplified
11.2	Service Rendered Receipt	standard	services, simplified
11.3	Simplified Invoice	standard	simplified
11.4	Retail Sales Credit Note	credit-note	simplified
11.5	Retail Sales Receipt on Behalf of Third Parties	credit-note	goods, simplified, self-billed

For example, this is how you set the IAPR invoice type explicitly:

{
  "$schema": "https://gobl.org/draft-0/bill/invoice",
  // ...
  "type": "other",
  "tax": {
    "ext": {
      "gr-mydata-invoice-type": "2.3"
    }
  }
}

And this is how you'll get the same result by using the GOBL type and tags:

{
  "$schema": "https://gobl.org/draft-0/bill/invoice",
  // ...
  "type": "standard",
  "tax": {
    "tags": ["services", "export"]
  }
}

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-mydata-vat-rate 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-mydata-vat-rate 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-mydata-exemption property needs to be set to one of these codes:

    "quantity": "20",
    "item": {
      "name": "Υπηρεσίες Ανάπτυξης",
      "price": "90.00",
    },
    "sum": "1800.00",
    "taxes": [
      {
        "cat": "VAT",
        "rate": "exempt",
        "ext": {
          "gr-mydata-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"
  }
}

Income Classification

Invoices reported to the Greek tax authority via myDATA can optionally include information about the income classification of each invoice item.

In a GOBL invoice, the gr-mydata-income-cat and gr-mydata-income-type extensions can be set at item level to any of the values expected by the IAPR:
