Tax Authority’s New Structure and AI Units Come into Force

Greece’s Independent Authority for Public Revenue (AADE) brings its new digital structure into force today, activating the General Directorate of Digital Services and Systems and formally integrating Artificial Intelligence units into its operational chart. The changes were approved earlier this year but take effect as of Monday.

The reorganization replaces the former e‑Government directorate and consolidates AADE’s digital platforms, development teams and data systems under a single umbrella. According to the Authority, the aim is to streamline internal workflows and improve coordination across tax‑related digital services.

AI units now formally operational

With the new structure active, AADE’s dedicated AI department begins official operation. Its role includes setting standards for AI use, developing applications for risk analysis and supporting automated cross‑checks already used in audits. The Authority has been gradually expanding data‑driven tools in recent years; today’s activation marks the first time these functions appear as distinct units in AADE’s organizational chart.
