Greece’s deadline for elevator registration concluded with significantly incomplete results. Only 286,000 out of an estimated 310,000 elevators nationwide have been officially registered. Owners of unregistered elevators now risk substantial financial penalties, the extent of which has not been fully detailed. The registration process was implemented to improve elevator safety standards and ensure regular maintenance checks. Authorities have not yet announced specific enforcement actions, but are expected to begin verifying compliance. This initiative aims to create a comprehensive national registry of all elevators, facilitating inspections and reducing potential accidents. The incomplete registration raises concerns about the safety of elevators that remain undocumented and potentially unmaintained.
