What is the Island Resident Number (MAN)?

The Island Resident Number (MAN) concerns permanent residents, permanently employed people living in the Greek islands and the companies operating in these regions. Individuals, families and professionals with a MAN number are beneficiaries of the Transport Equivalent Law (Metaforiko Isodynamo), according to which the cost of transport by sea is equated with the cost of land travel via intercity bus service (KTEL). You can use your MAN number when booking your Ferryhopper ferry ticket and you will receive the corresponding discounted money in your account at the end of the month.
​
The Island Resident Number is personal and issued once. Children and dependent members are entitled to MAN only if they have been declared in the tax return of the main beneficiary.
