The Hellenic Federation of Enterprises (HFE) has announced a significant extension for businesses regarding the review and update of their economic activity codes (KAD). The deadline has been moved from June 1, 2026, to October 30, 2026.

This decision, formalized by a new directive from the Commander of the Independent Authority for Public Revenue (AADE), aims to provide much-needed breathing room for both businesses and the accounting community. The updated KAD, based on the 2025 classification, is crucial for aligning with the revised European framework for economic activities.

Businesses can now submit their declarations without penalty until the new October deadline, provided they have not already reported a change in KAD for their headquarters or branches after March 1, 2026. The process is accessible through the myAADE digital portal or via phone and a dedicated digital platform, my1521.
