We cleared into Greece at Corfu port yesterday, arriving from Montenegro – US citizens, UK/Jersey boat. The information I found online was fragmented and imprecise, but the process isn’t too difficult or time consuming once you know where to go. Here’s what worked for us, a non-EU boat and crew:
Step 1: Register and pay for the e-tepai online (start here: https://www1.aade.gr/aadeapps2/etepai/)
Step 2: Prepare all required documents (passports, covid vaccination/test records; boat registration, insurance, crew list, e-tepai receipt etc.). We weren’t asked for our skipper qualifications.
Step 3: Go to the Hellenic Coast Guard office at https://goo.gl/maps/WzihF6wxXqJCsLih8; they’ll take down your details and prepare a checklist for customs and immigration.
Step 4: Go to the immigration and customs office in the main ferry terminal at https://goo.gl/maps/qcF9Ttuh6nZa14bT9. Enter through the security gate to the east of the building. The immigration and customs offices are next door to each other inside; if needed, the customs officer will prepare your transit log. Pay 30 Euros in cash for the transit log.
Step 5: With your passport stamped, transit log and signed checklist in hand, return to the same Hellenic Coast Guard office referred to in Step 3 above. They’ll take 15 Euros from you and stamp your transit log.
Everyone we encountered was super helpful and pleasant. Figure a couple of km walking to and fro, more if like us you anchored in Ormos Garitsas.
The entire Clearance entry into Corfu is out of date as of September 2019.
For non-EU boats entering Greece from another country visit http://www.aade.gr/polites/etepai before your entry into Greece and pay your TEPAI. In Corfu visit the Hellenic Coast Guard Office (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1BHb4FarDqrRoeI9GlhsIi9P7ohOAmy_h&usp=sharing) first and check in and pay a fee. Then go to the Immigration office and check in. Then return to the Hellenic Coast Guard Office and obtain a Transit Log. Finally take your Transit Log to the Customs office.
End of June 2018 we left our 12 m Jeanneau at Corfu Yacht Yard. Same rates as Preveza where we first tried to leave the boat but they were already fully booked, beginning of June!
Very welcomed in Corfu. Quite old fashion yard/equipment. But very efficiently managed. Very good washroom/showers for staying on board while de/commissioning. Very close to Port Authorities and short taxi ride to airport.
Lots of flights to Athens. Several marine stores nearby. Yard very accommodating on any needs, such as receiving parts ordered online, etc. Also very close to Sarande, Albania for a quick TI reset 🙂

We were on the Naok wharf for a few days in May, without any problems. We looked at the wharf again in June and there was no space. I believe it is unlikely any transient yachts will get a space on the high season but can use it on an availability basis on low season.
Anchor berth stern-to on the northern side. Be aware there is an electricity supply cable running parallel to the wharf about 50 metres off on the north side so don’t put your anchor too far out as it may foul. There is no longer water or power on the dock.
There is a small harbour area east of the fishing harbour but berthing is prone to swell and you risk being fined by Port Police.
September 2017.
We had two nights in Port Mandraki – Corfu Sailing Club. 25 EUR per night for 2 nights for a 12 m Cat. Water and electricity available. Fuel available. Laid moorings.
If on the outer mole go bows-to and you’ll need to be about 3m from the mole to avoid the rocks. Helpful staff. Pleasant location in the Old Fortress. Likely quite exposed in northerlies as the mole is about 1m high.

We arrived on the West side of Corfu from Italy, St. George Bay. Great anchorage. As we didn’t have the DEKPA yet, we contacted the Gouvia Marina, who told us that we shouldn’t worry and get it once we made it to Gouvia or Corfu City.
We also heard from seasoned sailors that they were never checked. Once at anchorage in Corfu, we first went to the tax authorities. They are located down the street from the anchorage, opposite the theatre.
There are no signs on the 5-story building and nothing in English at the entrance (or anywhere else). Go up the stairs to the first floor and go through the first door on the right.
At the first of five counters (with a paper sign “DEKPA”), you need to present the passport of the skipper/owner and boat details. Pay Eur 50 at the next counter.
Then make your way to the far end (west) of the commercial port, where the “Central Port Authorities” are located. On the first floor, immediately on the left is a small office, where you can apply for the DEKPA after showing the receipt from the tax authorities, passports, insurance, boat registration and the engine number.
Then it’s downstairs (ground level) to a colleague who puts some stamps and takes you to another colleague to pay Euro 15 “Fee for Entry into Greece”.
That’s it, just make sure you do it in the right order!
A *huge* thank you to whoever provided this fantastic information. We followed the instructions today (it was a little like a treasure hunt!) and had our DEPKA within an hour. Saved us days of head scratching and hassle. Thank you!!
Mooring for free in the port possible, avoid the berths marked with an X, they are designated to tourist boats. Quite smelly though but super convenient. No security of course. If you are berthed close enough to the cafes you can get yourself free wifi 🙂
We also negotiated the price down from 45 to 35 per night for 45′ (cash only!). showers don’t open before 10 am, no laundry. very spectacular setting, you’ll have to walk through the fortress to enter and exit the yacht club.
June 2015: Port Mandraki (the one below the old fortress): €45 per day for 46′, though I was able to negotiate it down to €40/day for a 5-day stay – water and electricity and WiFi included.
While generally a pleasant setting, ferries and other shipping passing by WILL generate a lot of surge, so keep well of the quay (laid moorings). With more northerly winds above 4-5, it can also get quite choppy here.
You need to go bow first on the outer mole if you love your rudder.
