Starting today, Monday, June 3, 2024, at 18:00, the electronic application submission for the “Social Tourism Program for Workers-Unemployed 2024-2025” by the Public Employment Service (DYPA) begins. The program will launch on July 1, 2024, providing 300,000 vouchers with a budget of €50 million, a 43% increase from last year. The vouchers are unique to each beneficiary. They allow stays of up to 6 nights in tourist accommodations listed in the DYPA Register, with nominal private contributions. Specific regions offer extended free stays and ferry tickets are subsidized. Participation requires a 25% contribution, waived for disabled individuals. Special allocations exist for single parents, those with disabilities, and lower-income beneficiaries.

The system considers various factors like family income and disability status. Applications, submitted exclusively online via gov.gr, are gradually accepted based on the last digit of the Tax Identification Number (TIN) until June 9, 2024. Selection criteria are objectively assessed using DYPA’s Integrated Information System (IPS). Certain individuals, such as those already subsidized by other tourism programs, are ineligible. Supporting documents are required for verification, and applicants must comply with the regulations to participate.
