More generally, registration in the OAED Unemployment Register is possible, as long as the conditions defined by the current institutional framework are met and can be carried out:
a) in person at the competent OAED Service of the place of residence either
b) electronically, using internet passwords.
If at any time and any check (electronic or in person) it appears that the trader did not meet the registration conditions, it is revoked, as well as all the administrative acts that have been issued.
The registration in the Register of the Unemployed for the cases of insured persons who meet the conditions of regular subsidy can be carried out at the competent OAED Service of the region of their last employment.
- The unemployment card of non-subsidized registered persons is valid for one quarter
- For the non-subsidized unemployed registered with the OAED, their Unemployment Card is valid for three months from the initial registration or the last renewal thereof.
The three-month validity of the Unemployment Bulletin begins on the day of its issue or of its last renewal and ends on the day of the third month corresponding to the day of its validity and, if there is no corresponding day, on the last day of the month. If the last day of validity of the Unemployment Bulletin is a non-working day, the expiry of the said Bulletin is postponed to the next working day.
The renewal of the Unemployment Certificate is a condition for extending its validity. Renewal is done in store five working days before or after the expected expiration of the Pass in the following ways:
- through the electronic services of the OAED, using passwords
- through KEP, through a corresponding electronic application
Το δελτίο ανεργίας των εγγεγραμμένων μη επιδοτούμενων Ατόμων με Αναπηρίες (ΑμεΑ) παραμένει σε ισχύ καθ’ όλο το διάστημα της ισχύος του πιστοποιητικού αναπηρίας και για ένα επιπλέον τρίμηνο μετά τη λήξη του.
The process of renewing the unemployment card is a self-righteous declaration of the continuation of the unemployment status, as it has been declared during its initial registration.
The status of unemployed is maintained until the reason for deletion is provided.
In the event that a reason for deletion arises, the registered unemployed person is obliged to declare it in any way to the Service within 8 working days from the receipt of the reason for deletion and in any case before the next renewal of the unemployment card or the issuance of unemployment certificates.
Registered unemployed
Το δελτίο ανεργίας των τακτικώς επιδοτούμενων ανέργων παραμένει σε ισχύ καθ’ όλο το διάστημα της επιδότησής τους. Μετά τη λήξη αυτής θα παραμένει σε ισχύ για ένα τρίμηνο ως δελτίο ανεργίας μη επιδοτούμενου ανέργου, εφόσον ο κάτοχος του εξακολουθεί να είναι άνεργος.

The subsidized unemployed person, after submitting his application, is obliged to come for the first mandatory declaration of presence and to receive the decision on his application at the KPA2 where the application was submitted, unless he has previously been transferred to another KPA2, where he must come for the above. After receiving the decision on his application by which he is entitled to a subsidy, the subsidized person can come to any KPA2 Service of the Organization to declare his presence.
