    We have collected instructions, recommendations and contacts, which can help you in the chosen country and situation

    If you are in danger now, assess whether you need emergency help.

    01. Call the Police

    — What should I do if I am in danger and need emergency help?

    Call 911.

    Also a victim or an individual concerned about a victim can report the abuse to the police or prosecutor’s office via the Center for Immediate Action by calling the 100 number anonymously or by using their name. Alternatively, they can contact their local police department.

    Reception centers for abused women (210 4112091); the “Next to You” line against domestic violence (800 1188881 or 2107786800 from a mobile).

    — When I call the police, what language should I speak?

    Greek or English.

    — If I have any migration issues (e.g., visa overstay), is it safe for me to call the police? Can an administrative case be initiated against me?

    Yes, the case is likely to be launched. Therefore, it is recommended to contact a local NGO first.

    — Can I say that I am a victim of domestic violence? Authorities’ formal and informal attitudes towards victims of domestic violence?

    Yes, you should state that you are the victim of domestic violence. Even though the legislation against domestic violence in Greece is strict, it seems that police are often reluctant to take action. You will need to press them to open the case. That’s why you might wish to turn to counsel centers for legal support.

    — How long will it take for the police to come? What should I do if they do not come?

    Depends on the location, from a couple of minutes to an hour. If the police do not come, call again.

    — What should I say when they come?

    You should describe the situation, show all the evidence and press the police to document the case and create the record. 

    Will the police remove the perpetrator from the house? For how long?

    They should remove the perpetrator until the court hearing, however, there is information that the police do not act consistently on domestic violence cases.

    Are there any restraining orders/ no-contact orders etc.? How do they work?

    C. Emergency barring orders

    1. The Prosecutor can order urgent measures in case of an incident of domestic violence. These measures are implemented immediately.

    2a.-2b.-2c.: Civil remedies can be applied, such as a temporary order (usually 1 to 2 days) and safety measures (about a month). Their maximum duration is decided by the court, usually they are valid until a final court decision is published. In severe cases, the court may completely remove parental custody from the delinquent parent (Article 1537 of the Civil Code).

    d. The prosecutor decides, based on the safety of the victim and the personality and past of the perpetrator.

    e. The flagrante delicto procedure is initiated. The perpetrator is arrested by the police and the case is brought to court immediately (within 24 hours). The measures ordered are usually the removal of the perpetrator from the residence and a prohibition on approaching the victim.

    f. Mainly fines and imprisonment.

    g. Women seeking for protection are offered psychological and legal support at the Network of Structures.

    3: There are no statistical data available.

    1. See par. C1 above.

    2. Restraining and protection orders are applied to all victims without exceptions.

    3. There are no fees in the criminal procedure. There are fees in the civil procedure, but in case the victim is entitled to legal aid, legal support is provided for free.

    4. The prosecutor orders, as well as the court decisions take immediate effect.

    5. The maximum duration of restraining or protection orders is at the Judge’s discretion.

    6. The restraining or protection orders are applied as long as there is a court decision (criminal or civil court).

    7. Restraining or protection orders are taken into consideration and can be applied at any stage of the legal procedure.

    8. Fines and/or deprivation of liberty.

    9. Women seeking for protection are offered psychological, social and legal counselling at the Network of Structures.

    — What can I do if the order is violated?

    Call the police.

    — What evidence is needed to bring a case against the abuser and prosecute? Do there have to be physical evidence?

    The victim must produce proof in the form of photographs, emails, text messages or any other physical evidence that can support the claim. In the event of domestic violence, it is advisable to make a visit to the hospital for physical or psychological damages to be recorded by the doctors and the relevant doctors’ opinions to be recorded in writing. A victim can also request that the police record the domestic violence incident.

    02. Get medical help

    — How to get medical help?

    Call 166.

    — When I call the ambulance, what language should I speak?

    Greek or English.

    — Do I need money/documents/being registered in the country to get medical help?

    No, emergency service is free in Greece, and public ambulances are available in larger cities.

    — If I have migration issues (e.g., visa overstay), is it safe for me to ask for medical help? Can an administrative case be initiated against me?

    Theoretically yes, but practice varies.

    — What rights do I have?

    You have the right to emergency medical assistance.

    — What should I say to medical staff?

    You should state that you are a victim of domestic violence and request the results of the examination to be documented to create the evidence for future proceedings.

    — If medical staff suspects that I am a victim of crime, do they have to report to the police?

    It is highly unlikely that the medical staff will report your case to the police.
