Greece has announced a six-month suspension on State claims over private property, halting new and ongoing lawsuits until 30 September 2025. The move aims to address a surge in litigation linked to land ownership disputes as the Land Registry nears completion. The government seeks to prevent unnecessary legal battles, clarify property claims, and reduce court congestion while ensuring fair treatment for property owners.

The deadline for property owners to submit their declarations to the Land Registry is fast approaching. By November 30, those who haven’t yet registered their property rights—such as ownership, usufruct, or mortgages—must complete the process or risk being blocked from conducting transactions like sales or transfers. This strict deadline applies to all real estate beneficiaries, including individuals, legal entities, and the Greek State. With no extension expected, property owners must act quickly to avoid fines and costly legal procedures.
