Registrar late-filing penalty (Annual Return HE32) - HE32 (with financial statements) not filed by its due date
An administrative penalty of €50 is imposed on the first day of default plus €1 for each day the default continues, up to a maximum of €150 per overdue filing (reference dates from 2021). File the outstanding HE32 and financial statements and pay the penalty to regularise; persistent default can lead to strike-off.
Registrar strike-off / de-registration notice - Company appears not to be carrying on business or is in persistent default
Respond to the Registrar's notice and bring filings up to date to avoid strike-off from the register (Cap.113). Restoration is a separate court/administrative process. (not verified against the authority's own page)
Tax assessment / examination (corporate income tax) - Review of the TD4/IR4 return, provisional-tax underdeclaration, or non-filing
Respond to the Tax Department's assessment or request for information; a 10% surcharge applies where provisional tax was under-estimated below 75% of the final liability. Object/appeal within the statutory period. (not verified against the authority's own page)
VAT assessment / late-registration penalty - Late VAT registration, late return, or under-declared VAT
Register within 30 days of crossing the €15,600 threshold; late registration and late returns attract fixed penalties plus interest and back-VAT. Respond to the VAT assessment and settle or object. (not verified against the authority's own page)
Trademark opposition - A third party opposes a published trademark application (Form Ε.Σ 14, €348)
The applicant must respond to the opposition within the period set by the Trademarks Law (Law 63(I)/2020) and IP Section practice; evidence and a hearing may follow. The €348 fee is the opponent's official fee.
Patent renewal-lapse notice - Renewal fee (Form Π.13) not paid by the due date
Pay within the six-month grace period with a 25%-per-month surcharge to avoid lapse; reinstatement thereafter is limited.
