Some 1.5 million self-employed professionals in Greece – out of a total population of some 11 million in the country – must fork over four different types of social insurance contributions by April 12, namely, regular pension fund payments, another for future supplementary pension, a one-off payoff and retroactive contributions dating to Jan. 1, 2017.
The specific castes of self-employed professionals – from physicians to civil engineers to farmers – affects some 250,000 taxpayers owning retroactive payments, emanating from new social security laws passed amid the third memorandum bailout.
