ギリシャ:出発前に知っておきたいこと
重要ポイント
- A per-night "climate resilience fee" is charged at your accommodation: Apr-Oct EUR 2-15 by category, much lower Nov-Mar.
- Cruise passengers pay an extra fee at Santorini and Mykonos in high season.
- Stiletto heels are banned at archaeological sites; touching or removing any stones or antiquities is a crime.
- Wildfire risk is high in summer: lighting fires outdoors can bring heavy fines or jail.
入国とビザ
Greece is in the Schengen area. Non-EU visitors are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES) on first entry: fingerprints and a facial photo, no passport stamps. Visa-free visitors may stay 90 days in any 180 across all Schengen states. ETIAS is not operating yet: its launch is now expected in 2027, so ignore sites selling "ETIAS" approvals.
パスポートの残存期間: Non-EU passports: valid at least 3 months after you leave the Schengen area and issued within the last 10 years.
入国審査で求められることがあるもの
- EES registration at the first Schengen border: fingerprints and face photo (children under 12 give no fingerprints). Allow extra time at passport control.
- Border guards may ask for a return ticket, accommodation proof, travel insurance and funds for your stay.
- Your 90/180 days are counted across all Schengen states together; use the EU short-stay calculator to check.
税関
- From outside the EU: 200 cigarettes, 1 L spirits or 2 L fortified wine, 4 L wine, 16 L beer; other goods up to EUR 430 by air/sea (EUR 300 by land).
- Personal imports of meat, milk and dairy products from non-EU countries are banned (small exceptions for infant food and medical needs).
- Declare cash of EUR 10,000 or more (or equivalent) when entering or leaving the EU.
- Prescription medicines: carry the prescription; narcotic or psychotropic medicines need a Schengen certificate (Article 75) or a doctor's letter.

お金
現金とカードの両方が使われる. カードはほぼどこでも使える.
決済ネットワーク:Visa, Mastercard
Apple Pay — 使える · Google Pay — 使える
両替におすすめの場所
- Withdraw euros from a bank-owned ATM in town, or bring euros from home.
- Pay by card or phone in euros; contactless is near-universal.
- ATMs of Greek banks (Piraeus, National Bank, Eurobank, Alpha); some charge foreign cards EUR 2-4.
両替を避けたい場所
- Airport and station exchange bureaux (poor rates, high commission).
- Independent ATMs such as Euronet in tourist zones: high fees and currency-conversion offers.
- Euronet and other independent ATMs on islands and in Plaka.
ATM: Bank ATMs may charge a fixed fee, shown before you confirm; take out larger sums. Small islands may have few ATMs; carry cash.
チップ: Leave 5-10% in cash for good restaurant service; round up for taxis.
- When a card terminal or ATM offers to charge you in your home currency, decline and pay in local currency: dynamic currency conversion adds roughly 3-10%.
- Cards issued by Russian banks (Visa, Mastercard and Mir) do not work here because of sanctions; bring enough cash or a card from a non-Russian bank.
- Shops must accept cards by law, but small tavernas, kiosks and island businesses often prefer cash. Always ask for a receipt.
