The Greek Ministry of Finance has announced that the suspension of the operation of the ultimate beneficial ownership (UBO) registry is extended for a further three months with effect from 1 July 2020. Greece earlier suspended the operation of the UBO registry to 30 June 2020, with the deadlines for filing information with the registry suspended accordingly. The suspension is extended further in light of the COVID-19 pandemic to give individuals and legal entities more time to familiarize themselves with the system. During the suspension, the system can still be used to temporarily store statements, but not for permanent submission.
