The Hellenic Republic recognised the Republic of Estonia on May 19, 1922.[1] Greece never recognised the Soviet annexation of Estonia.[2][3] Both countries re-established diplomatic relations on October 2, 1991.[4] In April 1997, Estonia has established an embassy in Athens. The Greek embassy in Tallinn opened in January 2005. Both countries are full members of the Council of Europe, the European Union and NATO.[5][6][7]

The current Ambassador of Estonia to Greece is Karin Rannu since 2022.[8][9] The current Ambassador of Greece to Estonia is Georges Papadopoulos since 2022.[10]
