Greece's Ministry of National Economy and Finance published speaking points from Deputy Minister Giorgos Kotsiras at the Athens Tax Forum 2025, outlining the government’s tax reform bill and its intended gains from tackling tax evasion and codifying legislation. The package was presented as a structural reform featuring horizontal reductions in tax rates, with stated benefits for families and young people. It also includes measures to support Greece’s regions, rationalise presumptive living-expense criteria, and address housing pressures, including an intermediate rate for the taxation of rental income and expanded and improved tax incentives for leasing vacant homes. The measures were positioned as building on a planned refund equivalent to one month’s rent for tenants to be paid from this month, while codification efforts were linked to recently enacted property taxation and national customs codes. The tax reform bill is currently being debated in Parliament.
