What is the minimum wage in Greece for 2025?

As of April 1, 2025, the gross monthly minimum wage in Greece is €870. This represents a 6.4% increase from the previous rate of €830. The government plans to gradually raise the minimum wage to €950 by 2027, aligning with its broader economic goals.


This adjustment is part of a new framework established by the Greek government, which includes a consultation committee involving social partners and economic bodies. The committee aims to determine future minimum wage increases based on factors such as inflation and productivity, ensuring that the minimum wage cannot be reduced.

It's important to note that the minimum wage increase may be subject to taxation. For example, the planned increase from €830 to €870 may result in a net increase of approximately €23, as opposed to the gross €40, due to higher income tax rates.

For more detailed information on the minimum wage and related policies, you can refer to the official Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs website: ProtoThema English.
