Sweeping checks are being launched by the Independent Public Revenue Authority (AADE) in the focus to see if they have complied by installing the new cash registers.
At the end of August, the deadline given to catering businesses for the installation of the new cash registers expires.
According to information, around 60,000 old-style cash registers have already been replaced by new ones while there remain around 8,000 businesses that have not adapted to the new requirements.
Cash registers in focus
The new cash registers in restaurants close the road to tax evasion tricks.
Within September, AADE controls will focus on bars and restaurants
With the new tax mechanisms, the receipt is only printed by a built-in printer, pending orders (“open” tables) and pending receipts are recorded in the tax memory, and “Z” is issued only when all open tables have been closed.
The debtors
Those liable to use the new cash registers, according to the relevant decision of the AADE, are those who provide:
- Full service restaurant catering services
- Restaurant services within a sleeping hotel
- Catering services from a restaurant, tavern, fish tavern, grill, with live music from an orchestra of at least three instruments with service provided
- Catering services provided by a restaurant, tavern, fish restaurant, grill, without live music or with an orchestra of less than three instruments with service provided
- Meal services from a fast-food restaurant, with serving service
- Catering services from entertainment center – secular tavern
- Catering services from a wine restaurant or winery (family business, no staff)
- Pizzeria catering services, with serving service
- Meal delivery services from steakhouses – kebab shops, with serving service
- Food and beverage services from ouzo, mezedo, tsipouradi, brewpub with service
- Food and beverage services from a snack bar, with service provided.
Catering businesses that operate in settlements with a population of up to 500 inhabitants and on islands with a population of less than 3,100 inhabitants, according to the last census, are excluded, except for places considered as tourist.
It is noted that the fine for issuing documents from an unapproved tax mechanism corresponds to 15% of the company’s revenue.
