Cash Registers (RROs)

The tax authorities have reminded businesses that starting from March 1, entities conducting payment operations are required to issue fiscal receipts in a new format. This includes a fiscal cash receipt for transactions involving the acceptance of funds for further transfer.

Additionally, the tax authorities have provided answers to common questions from businesses regarding the new rules for working with RROs (cash registers).

What Will Change in Fiscal Receipts from March 1?

New fiscal receipts will include the following additional details:

  • Payment method
  • Transaction currency
  • Buyer’s passport details (for purchasing alcohol and tobacco in duty-free stores)
  • QR code content will now include a search query for verifying receipts in the RRO Accounting System
  • Message Authentication Code (MAC) for RRO receipts
  • Weight per unit of tobacco products (for cigars, loose tobacco, and tobacco products sold in sets)
  • Quantity of tobacco products per unit (per pack)
  • Alcohol strength and volume (in liters) per unit (bottle) for alcoholic beverages sold in duty-free stores
  • Amount of change due to the buyer

Do Payments via POS Terminals or Online Card Payments Require RRO/PRRO Registration?

Yes.

POS terminal card payments must be processed through an RRO/PRRO, as they constitute a payment transaction.

Online payments (e.g., via a website) must also be recorded through an RRO/PRRO, as they involve acquiring services where the buyer enters their card details to pay directly to the seller’s account.

Mandatory Use of RRO/PRRO for Entrepreneurs in Markets

The tax authorities also reminded that entrepreneurs of the 2nd and 3rd tax groups operating in markets must use RRO/PRRO to register payment transactions and issue fiscal receipts.

Exceptions apply only in cases where it is permitted to use RК (cashbooks) and KОRО (registers of settlement transactions).

What Should a Buyer Do if They Are Denied a Receipt?

If a business refuses to issue a fiscal receipt, the buyer can:

  1. Report the violation to the tax authorities.
  2. Verify the authenticity of a fiscal receipt via the tax office’s online service “Search for Fiscal Receipt” on the State Tax Service’s web portal.
  3. Help stop illegal business practices by identifying non-compliant sellers through this system.
