I have had to cut and paste this from my email:
Information on the Fee for Pleasure Boats and Day Cruise Ships (TEPAI)
We would like to inform you that, following a recent law, a new fee (TE.PA.I) appliesto private
and professional pleasure boats and professional tourism day cruise ships exceeding seven
(7) meters in length for each month they remain within Greek territorial waters, regardless
of their flag.
The TE.PA.I is calculated on the basis of the overall length (LOA) of the vessel as per the
following table:
The TE.PA.I is paid for each month of stay in Greek territorial waters. The payment is made
before the beginning of the month for which the fee is due and may also cover more than
one months.
The fee may be paid in one instalment for the entire year. In this case, payment is made
either in December of the previous year or in January of this year.
For payment of the TE.PA.I, an electronic payment code (e-TE.PA.I) and payment via bank as
well as transfer via SEPA are required. If issuance of an electronic payment code is not
possible, payment shall be made to any Port or Customs Authority.
Reductions/discounts are applied in the following cases:
(a) a reduction of 25% for vessels, carrying a Greek Professional License exceeding 12 meters
in length, conditional upon dedicated professional use.
(b) a reduction of 20% if the (professional or private) vessels enter and remain in ports within
Greek territory during the current calendar year and provided they pay an advance lump sum
payment for the fee for the entire calendar year. A reduction of 20% shall be granted to
commercial ships in addition to the reduction of 25%.
(c) a 10% discount for Pleasure Boats and Day Cruise Ships in the event of prepayment of the
fee for 12 months, provided that the lump-sum payment is made in January of the current
calendar year, or in December of the previous year to which it relates.
Payment Exemptions
TEPAI is not applicable for the following vessel categories:
(a) Decommissioned or confiscated vessels, for the period of their decommissioning or
confiscation.
(b) Ships characterised as “traditional” ships
(c) Vessels in immobility (Out of Use).
Length of ship Fee (€) Fines for non-payment (€)
From 7 to 8 meters 16€ per month 190€
From 8 to 10 meters 25€ per month 300€
From 10 to 12 meters 33€ per month 400€
12 meter and more 8€ per meter per month 1.200€[/B]

It should be noted that, the immobility refers to the period of time that the “Certificate of
Nationality” or the “Vessel Running Permit” has been submitted to the Port Authorities, at
the request of the owner of the boat or his legally authorized person. In this way, the above
mentioned cost of TE.PA.I will be reduced for the out of use period of time of the boat. In
order to remove the immobility, proof of payment of TE.PA.I is required.
The authorized person must have an official authorization signed by the owner and stamped
with the APOSTILLE stamp [for EU citizens] or promptly witnessed, and translated in to Greek
language. In case you have nobody representing you in Greece you might authorize our
marina manager Mr. Dimitrios Koutsodontis.
Hope you can understand it!
