ENFIA (Ενιαίος Φόρος Ιδιοκτησίας Ακινήτων) is Greece's yearly property tax. It is charged on what you owned on 1 January of the year — a sale or a purchase later in the year does not change that year's ENFIA. The tax administration (AADE) issues it as an administrative assessment and posts it in your myAADE (Taxisnet) account; for 2026 the assessments were posted on 15 March 2026. A paper letter usually does not come.
When to pay
In up to 12 equal monthly instalments of at least €10. For 2026 the first was due on 31 March 2026 and the last is due on 26 February 2027. Paying the whole amount at once is allowed, but there is no discount for it.
Reductions
- An insured home — up to 20% off when the home was insured against earthquake, fire and flood during the previous year (10% on the value above €500,000; less for a shorter insurance; not for business property).
- Small villages — 50% off for a main residence in a settlement of up to 1,500 inhabitants, but only for owners who are Greek tax residents; it does not reach non-residents.
Owners abroad
To see and pay ENFIA you need a Greek tax number (AFM) and Taxisnet access. A non-resident may appoint a tax representative in Greece, but does not have to. Owners abroad often miss the assessment because it only appears online — check myAADE every spring.
If it is not paid
Interest is added from the day after each due date. Before most enforcement steps the tax office must send a notice and wait 30 days — but money in Greek bank accounts can be seized without that notice. A lawyer for property tax for foreign owners can check the assessment and the properties on your E9, or arrange the payments. The property tax calculator estimates ENFIA and the taxes of buying and selling.
