Fiscalization: Notification on the publication of Technical Specifications regarding the registration of cashless payments for electronic invoices.

Historic post, November 6, 2020. This post was part of the news about the launch of fiscalization in Albania. The system is now fully operational, and the current rules are summarized at our current page on fiscalization.
In implementation of Article 37 of Law No.Regulation No. 87/2019 “On the invoice and the monitoring system of turnover”, Banks, other nonbank financial institutions, and other entities that provide cashless payment services for electronic invoices must record and report to the Tax Administration at the end of each day the payments processed for these electronic invoices. In order to automate the process and actions required to execute payments, an electronic payment order will be made available to taxpayers alongside the electronic invoice, a tool that will significantly streamline and automate each entity's daily operations. As part of this obligation to report payments, the General Directorate of Taxes publishes the document “e-Invoice Service for Payments” as well as the accompanying functional documents for creating the web service. The supporting materials included in the technical document are as follows:

Every time there is a tax or financial change that affects your business, we notify you directly by email with a practical explanation.
