If you buy more than your allowance, and get caught, you'll have to pay duty.
Same everywhere I would have thought.
Hi
No problem with it that ,but I did wonder who the duty collected belongs to?
Surely not Greece
They were not purchased in Greece so you are not avoiding Greek tax

You're importing goods. You're avoiding Greek import duty. Same as the UK.
Hi
True.
I wonder if it’s more about increasing their tax revenue though.
Tax evasion in Greece exceeds 60 billion euro a year according to the Bank of Greece on June 12th.
Incomes officially declared in the country totaled 80 billion whilst consumption totals 140 billion
Tax evasion total when Greece signed their first bailout agreement was 110/120 billion so tax collection from whatever source has improved the economy
I was only asking if this practice has started in Corfu
