Accounting firm in Skydra

Skydra is one of the most important hubs for fruit production, packing and trade in northern Greece. That creates accounting needs you do not meet in an ordinary commercial business.

Seasonality and labour

Production is concentrated in a few months, and so is employment. Seasonal hires must be declared on ERGANI before work begins — not the same day, not the next. In an operation taking on dozens of people within a few days, a slip in the timing of the filing translates straight into a penalty.

We handle payroll with the particularities of seasonal employment: overtime, compensatory rest, severance and the corresponding APD filings.

Agricultural VAT regime

Many producers in the area sit on the boundary between the special and the standard VAT regime. The choice is not clear-cut: it depends on the level of inputs, on whether equipment investment is planned, and on whether products are sold outside Greece. We work it out on real figures before you decide, because changing regime is not something you can do freely at any time.

We also handle the OSDE declaration, farmers’ VAT refunds and ELGA damage claims, which in Skydra are a regular matter after hail or frost.

Inventory and production cost

In operations that pack and store, the valuation of inventory at year end directly affects the taxable result. It is not a formality to be done hastily in December: it requires proper costing that includes raw material, packaging, labour and refrigeration or storage costs. An incorrect valuation can show a profit that does not exist, or hide a loss that should have been recognised.

We track costs during the year and not only at closing, so you know whether the price you give the wholesaler really covers your cost.
