Greek AI enforcement and digital administration expansion

Overview

The Greek digital-enforcement programme has broadened its AI-driven tools. On 11 July 2026, the government expanded AI-enabled traffic cameras that automatically capture red-light runs, mobile-phone use, and seat-belt violations; notices are sent via the MyGov portal or mobile wallets, with paper mail now under 30%. Drivers may request a second review of camera images before fines are finalised. A second wave of AI-assisted enforcement began on 24 July 2026 when the Independent Authority of Public Revenue (AADE) issued 32,205 infringement notices for uninsured vehicles, totalling €12.5 million. An AI module now analyses appeal documents to produce confidence scores and recommendations for human auditors. On 5 August 2026, a €44 million plan was announced to install 1,000 additional AI traffic cameras in Attica, Thessaloniki, and Crete to create a Unified National Digital Recording and Enforcement System. Recent administrative issues on the myCar digital platform led to reports on 21 August 2026 of taxpayers facing heavy fines due to procedural errors. Expanding the scope of automated oversight, the General Secretariat of Information Systems and Digital Governance is developing an electronic cross-checking system to identify vehicles that have not completed mandatory technical inspections (KTEO). By linking databases from the Ministry of Finance, insurance companies, and the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, the system aims to automate fines of 400 euros for violators. While a one-week grace period may apply to minor deficiencies, vehicles with dangerous deficiencies will be prohibited from circulation. In late September 2026, the AADE began issuing electronic warnings for unpaid 2021 vehicle road taxes. Through a specialized application on the myCar platform, owners can use Taxisnet credentials to review their status and submit documentation for exemptions—such as theft, deregistration, or inactivity—to avoid debt certification and fines by October 30.
