Send money to and from Greece

FCA-regulated UK FX brokerage covering 3 corridors into Greece and 3 corridors out. Tighter spreads than retail apps and high-street banks, and a named dealer on WhatsApp for every trade.

The euro & EUR transfers

The euro (EUR) has been Greece's official currency since 2001, with the Bank of Greece (BoG) handling domestic operations as part of the European Central Bank (ECB) system. Greece's banking sector has stabilised significantly since the 2010โ€“2018 restructuring period, and SEPA coverage is now universal across Greek banks โ€” so EUR transfers credit reliably and cleanly.

Most Greek flows we handle are UK clients buying property โ€” Athens apartments, plus island and coastal Peloponnese villas โ€” and funding renovations or notary completions; UK and EU businesses paying Greek suppliers and tourism operators; expats and retirees funding living costs in Greece; and Greek businesses receiving GBP or USD invoices that need converting. Volumes typically run from โ‚ฌ15,000 family transfers to seven-figure property completions.

SummitFX is FCA-regulated in the UK and clears EUR into Greek bank accounts via SEPA โ€” same-day credit typical when instructed before the cut-off โ€” at a 0.5โ€“0.9% spread on the rate rather than the 2โ€“4% retail apps and high-street banks charge. Every trade goes through a named dealer on WhatsApp or phone, useful when notary completion timing, beneficiary detail, or large-amount source-of-funds checks come up.
