30 Nov How to pay greek taxes with greek e-banking account

In order to pay the Greek taxes, you need the tax statement (id note) from AADE for the payment. On the id note you will find a 30-digit number – the Payment ID (Ταυτότητα οφειλής) or “T.O.”, which is a unique number for each tax. This number can be used as many times as needed until the full payment of the tax. For more information about “T.O.”  meaning and some key words translation that appear on the id note click here. 

In Greece, tax payments can be done through a Greek e-banking account, using the 30-digit code (Payment ID ή «Ταυτότητα Οφειλής» ή «Τ.Ο.» ). Greek banks in their e-banking page have a special category that’s called “Public Services” or in Greek “Δημόσιες Υπηρεσίες” and then:

a) In National Bank you select “Confirmed debts” ή «Βεβαιωμένες Οφειλές» in Greek

In payments through the National Bank, the 30-digit code must be written without the gaps between the digits.

5. At the bottom of the screen, there is the i-code field. There, we enter the unique code we received via SMS on our mobile phone during the process. Once we are sure that all the information is correct, select “Confirm”.
