It is possible to search for company names and details, or to browse the register by inputting a space as the search term, up to a limit of 20 results. The limit to the number of results displayed is a severe logistical limitation to using the database. There are also no address details given for the companies retrieved.

A more full company register can be found and searched here: http://www.et.gr/index.php/2013-01-28-14-06-23/search-ae-epe-issue-with-publisher-criteria but it still requires inputting a search term with a minimum of 4 characters to access data. It is possible to view company documentation by clicking on the company name, and download it in PDF form.

The General Accounting Office is responsible for the dissemination and publicity of the Annual Budget. Unfortunately, the General Accounting office has chosen to publish the related data in formats, which essentially prevents further use of this information by the public. The annual budget is published as unstructured PDF documents, while the internal breakdown formations change almost every year. This makes comparisons of actual spending with the budget , particularly difficult. Some experimental projects have been made using data scraping techniques , however, for a reliable and efficient solution the General Accounting Office should re-evaluate the data publishing policies applied.

You can search for a postal code : http://www.elta.gr/en-us/findapostcode.aspx But that does not give you the corresponding geospatial location of that postal code. Unsure if that data exists.
