Notes
- Amendment of Operating Licence: When, after the issuance of an operating licence, changes to certain details of the establishment of a ‘port service station’ are required, or an extension is made with facilities provided for under the provisions of Joint Ministerial Decision No 33180/351/23-4-2021 (Government Gazette Series II No 1454/2019). Refer to Steps 7, 8, 9 and 10 which refer to the procedure for the issue or amendment of a licence to operate a service station within a port zone or in tourist ports.
- If there is evidence that further operation of a ‘port service station’ is not possible, the licensing authority may temporarily or definitively prohibit the continued operation of the ‘port service station’ by means of a special reasoned decision.
- The licence to operate a ‘port service station’ may be temporarily withdrawn until the deficiencies are remedied, if it is found that the conditions under which it was granted cease to exist, or it may be definitively withdrawn under a fully reasoned decision issued by the authority which granted it in the first instance.
- The issuance or withdrawal of the operating licence for the ‘port service station’ shall be duly notified to the applicant, the competent department of the Ministry of Environment and Energy, the local Port Authority, the local Police Department, the relevant Fire Department, the local Tax Office, the relevant Regional Directorate of Development and the competent department responsible for keeping the Independent Authority for Public Revenue system register of inflows and outflows hosted by the General Secretariat for Information Systems. The aforementioned Administrative Acts shall be published in accordance with the provisions of Law 3861/2010 (Government Gazette Series I No 112).
- Before the expiry of any certificate, the licensee is required to submit a new valid document in order to continue operating to the competent department of the authority. In this case, a new operating licence will not be issued, and the service station file record will be updated with the new supporting document. The monitoring by the licensing authority is limited exclusively to the new supporting document submitted. If it is found that a ‘port service station’ is operating without any valid certificates submitted as supporting documents, the operating licence shall be withdrawn and the service station premises will be sealed.
