The digitization of goods movement in Greece is entering its final stage. Starting May 1st, 2026, Phase B of the Digital Delivery Note becomes mandatory for all businesses, under ministerial decision ΚΥΑ Α.1145/2025.

Phase A vs Phase B: What’s the difference?

Phase A, already in effect since December 1st, 2025, required businesses to issue delivery notes digitally and transmit them to the myDATA platform at the start of each shipment.

Phase B goes significantly further, introducing full digital monitoring of every goods movement: loading, transshipment, receipt, and quality/quantity checks — all recorded digitally and transmitted to the ΑΑΔΕ myDATA platform.

What’s new in Phase B?

• Real-time Tracking: Each shipment gets a live status (In Transit, Delivered, Completed, Rejected), visible at any moment.
• QR Code per shipment: Every goods movement is accompanied by a unique QR Code that acts as the cargo’s digital “passport.”
• Group QR Code: For transport companies, multiple delivery notes can be grouped under a single QR — significantly simplifying route management.
• Reverse Delivery Note (Type 9.3): In special cases (e.g. special-regime farmers, imports, intra-community acquisitions), the note can be issued by the recipient.
• Digital delivery confirmation: The recipient scans the QR Code and digitally confirms receipt — no paperwork, no ambiguity.

Who does it affect?

All businesses that move goods — suppliers, transport companies, and recipients. From May 1st, transmitting monitoring data to myDATA is no longer optional. It is mandatory.

A practical recommendation

Even if a further extension is announced (which is not guaranteed), early preparation is always the safest approach. Businesses that use the current period for trial implementation will be well ahead — whether an extension comes or not.
