Dealing with Fines & Adminstrative Matters in Greece

Anyone can find themselves being notified that they are being fined for some infraction or other - often unwittingly. It can often relate to property or car ownership, and while usually it is a result of a failure to adhere to established rules, as often as not it is a failure to submit some document you didn't realise you were required to.

To add insult to injury, not being a local can make finding out how to rectify the problem extremely time-consuming and, in some cases, virtually impossible.

Advocate Abroad can assist you with advice and/or direct assistance to resolve the matter and ensure that any fine does not get increased further due to failure to arrange payment within the established timeframe.

The key requirement is the possession of documentation related to the fine, such as notification letters or tickets, which are essential for assessing the case.
