When you choose Meest services to send parcel to Greece, the first step is to create an account on the Meest Portal.

What to Know Before Sending a Package to Greece

Before you ship to Greece, it’s important to understand the following factors that can influence your shipment:

• ensure that the recipient's address is correctly formatted with all relevant information, including postal codes, to avoid delays;
• be aware of the weight limitations for international shipments to Greece. Heavy packages may incur additional fees;
• for valuable items, consider adding insurance to your shipment for added protection during transit.

By taking these factors into account, you can ensure a smooth shipping experience from start to finish.

Greek Customs Rules and Import Restrictions

Every country has its own set of customs regulations, and Greece is no exception. When shipping to Greece, it’s necessary to follow the Greek customs rules to avoid delays or fines.

Items That Are Restricted or Prohibited in Greece

Certain items are either restricted or outright prohibited from entering Greece. To help prevent your shipment from being delayed or confiscated, check the list below for common prohibited items:

• alcohol;
• weapons;
• narcotics;
• counterfeit goods;
• perishable goods.

Always verify that the item you plan to send is not on this restricted or prohibited list before proceeding with your shipment to Greece. If you are unsure about a specific item, it’s best to consult Meest USA customer support for guidance.

How Duties, VAT, and Processing Fees Work in Greece

When sending a package to Greece, you should also consider the applicable duties and VAT (Value Added Tax). Greece, as part of the European Union, follows EU regulations for international shipping:

• If your item exceeds the duty-free threshold, it may be subject to import duties, which are based on the value of the item and its classification;
• the standard VAT rate in Greece is 24% — this tax is applied to the total value of the package, including the cost of the item, shipping fees, and any other applicable charges;
• customs may charge a small processing fee for handling your shipment (fee will typically be included in the customs paperwork).

It’s important to accurately declare the value of your shipment to avoid complications at customs. Overstating or understating the value can lead to delays and potential fines.
