If you’re planning a trip to Corfu (or anywhere in Greece), there are important new travel rules coming for UK passport holders.

Two new EU systems are being introduced:

✈️ EES — Entry/Exit System (border checks using biometrics)
🧾 ETIAS — travel authorisation you’ll apply for before travel

Don’t worry — you can still visit Corfu visa-free for holidays. But from 2026, the process will change slightly.

Planning a trip to Corfu and wondering…

• Do I need cash?

• Can I use my card everywhere?

• Are there ATMs on the island?

• Is Greece still cash-only?

The short answer?

Bring some cash — but not loads.

Corfu is modern and very card-friendly… but it still has that relaxed, local Greek island vibe where cash is sometimes quicker and easier.

Here’s exactly what to expect so you don’t over-withdraw or get stuck without euros.
