official name republic
Hello, sorry it took me forever to answer to your post. My grandparent's passports from 1980 clearly say "REPUBLIC OF GREECE" on all their pages, and no page bears the title "HELLENIC REPUBLIC". I should probably upload a couple of pictures on commons... --Philly boy92 (talk) 18:56, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Hello Phillyboy, Thanks a lot for your response. I'm still interested in the fact that the 1975 passports also gave the inscription "REPUBLIQUE de GRÉCE / REPUBLIC OF GREECE", but 1976 en 1977 passports are showing "REPUBLIQUE HELLENIQUE / HELLENIC REPUBLIC". I presume the first mentioned style was in use in international usage from the proclamation of the republic in 1973until 1976, but it makes no sense this style revived in 1980. Do you know the reason of this? Hope you can find out. Thanks in advance. Sergeantmayer (talk) 20:53, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
