In intensive checks in central streets of Athens, in taxi ranks, at Eleftherios Venizelos Airport and in central KTEL stations of Attica, special levels of AADE proceeded in the last 48 hours, in order to verify whether taxi drivers have complied with their obligation to have the special sticker installed on the rear right window of their vehicle.

This particular sticker informs customers that taxis are obliged to accept payments and through the use of POS.

From the checks carried out and from the lists sent by the local unions, it is estimated that nationwide about 50% of taxi drivers have complied with this obligation. The checks are going to continue in the coming days both in Attica and in the rest of the country. So far, drivers caught without a sticker in place have been cautioned and had their details recorded, while fines are due to be triggered from the end of the week for those found not to have complied with the law.
