The Greek identity card (Greek: Δελτίο ταυτότητας, "identification card") is the official national identification document for Greek citizens. It is issued by the Hellenic Police.
Possession of the card is mandatory for all Greek citizens 12 years of age and older.[2] Citizens are always required to carry an identification document (namely an identity card, a passport, or a driving licence) and produce it upon request – failing to do so may result in the citizen's identification at the nearest police station.
The card is a valid international travel document in Europe (except to Belarus, Russia, Ukraine and for non-settled Greeks to the United Kingdom), to French overseas territories, Georgia, Turkey, Tunisia (on organized tours)[3][4] and Montserrat (for 14 days in transit to a third country).[5] It is also used to identify a person as a citizen for local and EU elections.
Military staff, as well as members of the police, fire service, coastguard, and intelligence services, carry special IDs issued by their sector, which are valid until retirement or conclusion of their services. These documents are issued instead of the standard police-issued identity card, but ID cards of police personnel can also be used as travel documents.[6]
