Greece has reversed a general ban on motorhome parking that was implemented in May 2025. Under a new police directive (No. 1246/26/351380), motorhomes up to 7.5 meters can park without time limits in inhabited areas, while longer ones are limited to 24 hours.

Greek police have issued a clarificatory order establishing new parking rules for motorhomes and caravans. Within populated areas, motorhomes over 7.5 meters and all caravans are limited to 24-hour parking, while outside populated areas there are no time limits unless prohibited by signage. The order clearly distinguishes legal parking from illegal camping, prohibiting the deployment of additional equipment like awnings or chairs.

The Greek police have issued a clarifying ordinance, overturning controversial parking restrictions for motorhomes that had been in place since 2025. The new rules, effective February 15, 2026, state that motorhomes are subject to the same parking regulations as other vehicles. Within localities, motorhomes up to 7.5 meters in length can park without time limits, while longer ones are limited to 24 hours. Outside localities, there is no time limit, although wild camping remains prohibited.
