Overview
Greece's internet users stood at 89.06% in 2025, a rise of +2.79% from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 89.06% by 2025. Greece ranked 90th globally.
Greece’s share of internet users rose from zero in 1990, when the World Bank recorded a complete absence of online penetration, to an all‑time high of 89.06 percent in 2025, placing the country at rank 90 globally. This 36‑year trajectory mirrors the rapid diffusion of broadband across Europe, yet Greece lags marginally behind peers such as the Maldives (89.12 percent) and France (88.92 percent) that occupy adjacent positions in the 2025 ranking. The steep climb reflects successive policy initiatives, including the 2006 National Broadband Plan and substantial EU structural funds that expanded fiber‑optic networks, while the lingering gap to the top‑tier nations suggests room for improvement in rural coverage and digital literacy. As the domestic market approaches saturation, future growth will depend on the rollout of next‑generation 5G services and targeted programs to bridge remaining demographic divides, which could modestly lift Greece’s internet penetration beyond the current peak.
