Dollis was elected at the 1988 Victorian State election. In 1999, Dollis was disendorsed by the ALP in light of his time spent abroad. Dollis had become involved in helping to free Australian CARE workers imprisoned in Yugoslavia, and was unable to respond to allegations he was seeking a job from the Greek government.

Following his departure from Victorian politics, Dollis took up roles on Greek diplomatic circuit. In 2010 Dollis was appointed as a Greek Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs alongside Mariliza Xenogiannakopoulou, a role held until June 2012 when the Coalition Cabinet of Antonis Samaras was sworn in.
