Customs duty when driving to Greece

@Stravatha I think you only have an import limit of €480 for new items to be tax free - I would simply brin the things over during a few separate trips to not stand out and risk it - (as I did - and  when I did get caught I simply played dumb and they warmed me not to do this next time) otherwise you need to talk to Greek customs

Thanks Philip,

Thats really useful info.  Have you any idea where I can find the official line on this?

Many thanks

@Stravatha sorry no - often things you would expect to be clear and online are not there - I would send an email to the Greek embassy in London to try this route instead

Thanks Philip,

Many thanks

@Stravatha

Are you an EU citizen and were the goods (irrespective of their age) bought in an EU country with VAT paid in that country? If so, neither customs duty nor Greek VAT.

It's called the Internal Market!

I've been recommended a company called Nomad International in the UK for transporting goods to Crete from the UK. They can give you more info, surely. You can find them online.
