Traveling to Greece in 2023 marked the first "fully post-pandemic" summer, where nearly all COVID-19 entry requirements were abolished. Travelers did not need a vaccination certificate, a recovery certificate, or a negative PCR/Antigen test to enter the country. For U.S., Canadian, and UK citizens, a valid passport with at least six months of remaining validity was the primary requirement, as the "ETIAS" system was delayed until 2025/2026. However, travelers were still encouraged to have valid travel insurance that covered medical emergencies. For those renting a car, an International Driving Permit (IDP) was technically required for non-EU license holders, although many local rental agencies in the islands were lax about this. Economically, Greece in 2023 saw the full implementation of "Tourist Taxes" (Stay Resilience Fee) in hotels, ranging from 0.50€ to 4€ per night depending on the hotel's star rating. While the paperwork was minimal, the "digital" aspect was high, with most ferries and museums requiring pre-booked QR codes to manage the record-breaking crowds of that year.
