“Eyes” of the Tax Office on the tables: “Smart” cash registers also in the restaurants of Achaia – 2024-08-06 10:15:40

With the new “smart” cash registers, the catering industry is trying to harmonize, as from August 1st businesses with table service are required to have one of the following mechanisms: Restaurant REPUTATION, Restaurant VAT, Restaurant ADIME or provider of Electronic Data Issuance.

AADE attempts to block tax evasion and other tricks, which were done with the receipts and POS in Restaurants, Taverns, Grills, Pubs and Ouzeri.

With the old cash registers, there was no record of tables and orders resulting in the possibility of canceling order forms, not issuing receipts and subsequently deleting turnover.

The new cash registers have the ability to “read” and automatically inform AADE even about “open tables” in the storei.e. those that have pending orders and a receipt has not yet been “cut”, while the issue of an Order Form marked with a QR Code automatically corresponds to the issue of a Receipt.

Note that, the industry initially disagreed on the timing of the implementation of the new cash registersin the middle of the summer season, while their operation was also an additional cost for businesses.
According to information, around 20,000 businesses have not yet managed to get the new cash registers either due to lack of equipment or lack of technicians.
