For listed shares the capital gains regime only bites from a holding of 0.5% of the company upward, which leaves most retail sales outside it. Dividends are taxed at 5%, and TEKE covers up to €30,000 per investor.

What to know if you live in Greece

Dividends are taxed at 5%, withheld by a Greek distributor and reported in subtable 4Δ1 of the E1 return; a provider abroad withholds nothing Greek (AADE).

For listed shares the capital gains regime of article 42 of law 4172/2013 only applies from a holding of at least 0.5% of the company upward, which leaves most retail sales outside it, though the transaction is still reported in subtable 4Ε of E1 (AADE circular E.2171/2021, E1 instructions). Where it does apply, the rate is 15% (art. 43 of law 4172/2013). If a firm fails, the investment cover branch of TEKE pays up to €30,000 per investor.
