What the ΠΟΛ.1240/2018 report needs

Documenting VAT for a chartered sailboat in Greece means proving, trip by trip, how much of each voyage took place inside versus outside defined nautical-mile zones. The regulation requires a movement report (έκθεση πλου) for each trip of a chartered vessel:
  • Timestamps and positions: a recorded track of when and where the vessel travelled
  • Zone breakdown: the share of the voyage spent inside and outside the relevant nautical-mile zone
  • Per-trip evidence: a record you can archive and submit as supporting documentation for VAT (ΦΠΑ)
Done by hand from raw coordinates, this is slow and error-prone. KentallTech automates the whole thing.

Every port zone is pre-mapped

We have mapped the nautical-mile zones around every island and major port base used for this purpose. Schedule a weekly VAT report per vessel and it is generated and emailed to you automatically as an archive-ready PDF, with the trips, timestamps, positions and zone percentages already worked out.
Automated VAT trip report with distances and zones
The platform measures each trip against the regulated zones and calculates the percentage of the voyage inside and outside them, with no manual coordinate work. Combined with up to six months of replayable trip history, your charter logbook (ημερολόγιο πλου) is backed by a complete, verifiable record.

Backed by six months of trip history

Every VAT report is supported by replayable trip history for up to six months. Inspect any voyage point by point, with speed, coordinates and engine status at each step, so the evidence behind every report is always there.

A specialisation competitors do not offer

General marine trackers show you a map. The Greek charter VAT workflow, the ΠΟΛ.1240/2018 zone calculations and the ready-to-file reporting are a specialisation we built specifically for the Greek market, and it is a large part of why so many Greek charter operators run their fleets on KentallTech.

ΠΟΛ.1240/2018 is the Greek regulation governing movement reports (εκθέσεις πλου) for chartered vessels. It requires recording each trip’s timestamps and positions and the share of the voyage inside and outside defined nautical-mile zones, which affects how the charter is treated for VAT.

Does the platform calculate the nautical-mile zones automatically?

How do I receive the VAT report?

A weekly VAT trip report can be scheduled per vessel and is generated automatically, then emailed to you as an archive-ready PDF that you can submit for VAT purposes.
