With the inclusion of these Greek Missions Abroad, it is now possible to make a digital appointment with a total of 60 Embassies and Consulates in 36 countries. The service was initially launched on a pilot basis in December 2020 through the cooperation of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs Nikos Dendias and of State and Digital Governance Kyriakos Pierrakakis, while its design and implementation were carried out by the General Secretariat for Information Systems of the Ministry of Digital Governance, based on similar digital appointment services provided by the Citizens Services Centres (KEP), the Greek Manpower Employment Organization (OAED), the Independent Authority for Public Revenue (AADE) and the Unified Social Security Fund eEFKA.
