Changes to the tax code: what business should prepare for
A walk-through of the key amendments on single-tax rates, cash-register administration and the new rules for deductions.
Tax administration is becoming fully digital. The authorities now match cash-register data, virtual warehouses and electronic invoices in real time. This article goes through the amendments that have come into force and how to avoid a frozen account.
1. How detailed the item list in a receipt must be
Lines with generic names such as «Goods» or «Service» now count as a breach of the cash-register rules and carry a fine. Every receipt must carry the exact customs code or the internal classifier code of the item.
2. Tighter control over VAT deductions
The inspection has strengthened cross-checking along VAT chains. If a supplier in the second or third link is deemed unreliable, the deduction on the transaction may be challenged. Before every large purchase we recommend asking the counterparty for a tax clearance certificate.
