Fiscalization: Why does it serve us?

It's not a new tax.

Law No. 87/2019 “On the Invoice and the Monitoring System of Turnover” dhe ndryshimet që ai sjell, nuk prodhojnë asnjë ndryshim në skemën aktuale të taksave. Për të gjithë tatimpaguesit që deklarojnë dhe paguajnë këto detyrime, nuk ka asnjë ndryshim në peshën e detyrimeve të tyre. Fiskalizimi ka në fokus ata që nuk deklarojnë dhe nuk paguajnë detyrimet e tyre në përputhje me ligjin. Me këtë proces të ri të raportimit financiar, ne sigurojmë një kontroll më të mirë dhe inspektim më efikas tatimor, ndërsa i jepet mundësia çdo qytetari, që të verifikojë nëse taksat që ai paguan për mallrat dhe shërbimet, deklarohen në sistemin tatimor.

It helps us lower taxes.

With the fiscalization project, we reduce the informal economy. This ensures that more individuals who are currently operating in the black market, without declaring and paying their obligations, will now pay their dues. In an informal economy, those who pay bear the burden for those who don't. Formalizing the economy expands the circle of taxpayers, thereby creating real opportunities to lower taxes.

People who don't pay taxes are stealing from all of us.

The taxpayer who does not pay his obligations is stealing from every Albanian citizen. Tax collection is directly linked to public investments: roads, schools, hospitals, parks, etc. Every time any of us pays for a service or a good, we also pay the VAT. When a business fails to declare it, these revenues—instead of boosting the state budget and thereby public investments—end up in the pockets of those who abuse our money.

There is no change for regular taxpayers.

For regular taxpayers, this project brings no fundamental change. They will need to modernize their reporting format with new technology, but without affecting their business operations and with very little, if any, financial impact.

It helps us identify irregularities.

The new system will allow every citizen to verify whether the invoice for the goods or services they have paid for has been reported to the tax system. With very simple steps, by scanning the invoice's unique parameters, you will be able to verify whether it has been reported to the tax system. This way you will have the opportunity to exercise your rights as a citizen and to report when someone issues an irregular invoice.

Modernizes your business

The new fiscalization system encourages the entire economy to use less paper and bureaucracy, moving toward an electronic transaction system. This system modernizes the entire economy, increasing its efficiency.

Membership in the EU

The modernization of the tax system, transparency in doing business, and the use of electronic invoicing (e-invoicing – in accordance with European Union standards) are all necessary prerequisites that will help us on our journey to join the European Union.

Let's avoid non-payers.

Me sistemin e faturës elektronike (e-fatura), është më e thjeshtë për të gjurmuar pagesat dhe për të identifikuar kompanitë që gjenerojnë paaftësi paguese duke mos paguar faturat në periudhën e detyrueshme. Le të zbulojmë jo –paguesit që cënojnë të gjithë sistemin financiar të vendit. Burimi: General Directorate of Taxes.
