🌞 Planning a getaway to Greece? Here’s some fab news for UK holidaymakers! 🌴
While the EU’s new Entry/Exit System (EES) is causing a bit of a buzz, you’ll be pleased to know that Greece has made a delightful exception for British travellers. Unlike Spain and Italy, you won’t need to worry about the new biometric border checks when you jet off to Greece! 🇬🇷✈️
As of 10 April 2026, British passport holders can skip the fingerprint and photo faff at Greek border crossings. What a relief, right? With the EES in full swing since October 2025, chaos has erupted in some European airports with long queues and missed flights. But if you’re heading to lovely Greece, it looks like you’ll dodge the drama. 🎉
While British tourists hopping over to other Schengen spots are still dealing with biometric registrations, Greece is keeping it breezy. The UK Government and the Greek Embassy have confirmed this happy news – no extra hassle of uploading your details for entry.
If you’re planning a trip, make sure you stay updated with any local advice from the authorities. Having your residence documents in hand is always a smart move too! 🗺️📄
Enjoy the sunshine and stunning sights without the stress! 🌊
