Logisticoo runs transports from Germany to Greece and back on all three corridors — the Balkan route, the EU route via Bulgaria or the Adriatic ferry — and gives you a fixed-price quote within 30 minutes. Germany is Greece's most important trading partner: heading south we carry machinery, vehicles, pharmaceuticals and electrical engineering products; coming back it is foodstuffs on a large scale — olives and olive oil, feta, fruit and vegetables — plus aluminium and oil products. The food traffic in particular calls for temperature-controlled equipment and seasonal capacity planning, for instance around the autumn harvest. Route choice is a genuine lever: the Serbia route is the fastest but needs transit documents; the Bulgaria route stays entirely within the single market; the ferry from Italy eases driving-time pressure and is often unbeatable for trailers to western Greece. Our dispatchers decide this per shipment based on deadline, type of goods and the current border situation. With country offices in Berlin, the Czech Republic and Turkey, Logisticoo is on the south-east corridors every day — and Greece is a fixed part of that rhythm. We also connect island destinations: via the ferry networks out of Piraeus, shipments reach Crete or Rhodes with only a few days' surcharge — fully organised end to end by a single point of contact.

Routes & corridors

Three proven routes: the overland route via Hungary, Serbia and North Macedonia (E75, Evzoni crossing) to Thessaloniki and Athens; the all-EU route via Romania and Bulgaria (Kulata–Promachonas); or the Adriatic ferries from Ancona or Venice to Igoumenitsa and Patras with a trailer or the complete rig.

Documents & processing

Greece is an EU member — no customs formalities within the single market. Only on the fast overland route through Serbia and North Macedonia is a transit procedure (T1/TIR) required for the non-EU transit; the alternatives via Bulgaria or by Adriatic ferry from Italy remain entirely customs-free.

Frequently asked questions: transport Greece

How long does a transport from Germany to Greece take?

We reach Thessaloniki in 3–4 working days and Athens in 4–5 days — on the Balkan route as well as via the Adriatic ferry. Express dedicated runs with a two-driver crew manage Munich–Athens in around 48 hours, provided the transit documents for Serbia and North Macedonia are prepared.

How much does a truck to Greece cost?

For a full truckload Munich–Athens (approx. 2,400 km), calculate 3,200–4,000 € as a rule of thumb, including transit or ferry costs; refrigerated loads sit slightly above that. Single pallets by groupage to Greece start at around 160–250 €. Fixed price within 30 minutes.

Do I need customs documents for Greece?

Greece itself is part of the EU single market — invoice and CMR are sufficient. Only on the fast overland route through Serbia and North Macedonia do we open a T1 or TIR procedure for the transit; on the Bulgaria route and the Adriatic ferry, even that is unnecessary.
