The Greek Ministry of Transport has announced a series of measures aimed at combating corruption associated with the issuance of driver's licenses, particularly addressing the issue of bribery during driving tests. Effective immediately, the agency will implement the use of cameras and microphones during practical driving examinations to ensure the integrity of the testing process. This move is part of a broader initiative to streamline services and improve transparency, thereby facilitating a more efficient experience for citizens seeking licenses.

In addition to these changes, the ministry is also introducing a digital platform that allows for the issuance of licenses and vehicle registrations without intermediaries. This digital transformation is expected to significantly reduce bureaucratic hurdles and enhance service delivery. Authorities aim to provide a more accountable system for obtaining driving permits, which has historically been marred by corrupt practices.

Complaints regarding corrupt activities can now be reported through a designated platform, further reinforcing the government's commitment to tackle longstanding issues related to transparency in the licensing process. As the ministry implements these reforms, officials are hopeful that they will lead to a more trustworthy and efficient system for issuing driver's licenses in Greece.
