Greece is set to introduce a new network of citizen service centers, branded as 'myPoint,' designed to streamline interactions with the tax office and other public services. This initiative aims to simplify processes and provide more accessible support for taxpayers.
The 'myPoint' network will initially launch as a pilot program in six locations within the Attica region. The long-term goal is to establish a presence in every regional capital, ensuring broader access across the country. The centers are intended to offer guidance, information, and support in a more organized and efficient manner, reducing the need for cumbersome procedures.
Taxpayers will be able to receive assistance with various administrative tasks, potentially reducing wait times and the overall complexity of dealing with public services. The specific mechanisms for how these services will be delivered, including whether staff will always be present, are part of the ongoing implementation details.
