Entrepreneurs will have to report settlement transactions to the tax office via the Internet
Before the New Year entrepreneurs are in for a surprise. They will have to change their equipment because they will have to report to the tax office via the Internet every day about all sales for the day. Service centers say: there are currently no new cash registers with such functions at all. Therefore, at the first stage they will try to modernize existing models, attach modems to them, from which they will send information to the tax authorities.
From January 1, tax officials will instantly know how much of which product and for what amount each store in the country sold. Entrepreneurs who use cash registers will report to the tax office virtually. Information from the cash devices will be sent daily to the agency’s server. This will make life easier for everyone. At least, that’s what the tax authorities believe. Stores will not have to spend money on paper and keep control tapes for 3 years. And it will be easier for tax officials to monitor businessmen.
Serhiy Krukhmalev, director of the department of the State Tax Service of Ukraine: «Daily report and the daily number of transactions carried out on a particular electronic cash register, and there will be no need to go out on inspections, because all non-analytical information will be formed at the level of the State Tax Service of Ukraine».
But cash registers with such functions do not currently exist in Ukraine. Manufacturers say that at first they will try to re-equip existing models. That is, to connect modems to them that will transmit the necessary information to the tax authorities. Ultimately, in any case, entrepreneurs will have to pay extra for upgrading existing cash devices or buy new ones.
Volodymyr Kopys, cash register designer: «No less than somewhere in the region of $100 ? $200
will be the cost of the modem itself. The commissioning procedure is also described, and I think that service centers will also charge some money for this, because they need to pay salaries to their people who
will carry this out».
Service centers are now racking their brains about how to adapt models to the tax authorities’ requirements. But not all businessmen are even aware of the new rules yet.
There are hundreds of thousands of cash registers at Ukrainian enterprises. And while updating them for large chains is not cheap, at least there won’t be problems with the Internet. But how, for example, village shops will report daily is unclear.
Danylo Hetmantsev, lawyer: «Not everyone will have time to re-equip their cash transaction registrars, and this will have negative consequences for the economy, so I believe that a certain transition period would be successful, during which entrepreneurs will be able to operate both on the old and the new technology».
Under the new rules, if a cash register does not have a connection to the server for 72 hours, its operation will be automatically blocked . However, at the moment the tax authority itself is only developing the node where all the information will be stored. They promise to launch it on December 28. They have allocated six months to test the new system. And already from July entrepreneurs who do not convert their cash registers to the new technology will be fined.
