Highlight

The current Law on fiscalization, which has introduced a combination of SW and HW fiscalization in Serbia, has been in effect since January 1st, 2022. The issuance of fiscal receipts is mandatory, as well as online communication with the Tax Authority. POS applications have to be certified. The official currency in Serbia is the Serbian Dinar (RSD).

Serbia

In 2022, Serbia shifted from a hardware-based fiscalization introduced in 2004 to a combination of a hardware and software-based fiscalization system. Delivery of transaction data to the tax authorities in real time was introduced, with new mandatory information on the receipt prescribed by the law. The new fiscal system is comprised of four main elements, out of which some need to be certified in order for a taxpayer to stay compliant.

Type of fiscalization: Hardware/Software

Serbia’s fiscalization framework applies broadly to legal entities, entrepreneurs, and individuals issuing receipts, covering all major sales channels including physical stores, mobile sales, online shops, and vending machines, with limited sectoral exemptions. The system is built around certified components: a cash register application (ESIR), a fiscal receipt processor (PFR—local or virtual), and a mandatory secure element (BE) which does not require certification since it is issued by the tax authority, all of which work together to calculate taxes, sign receipts, and transmit data to the tax authority in real time or near real time. Store registration with the tax authority is mandatory, certification of software components is required, and the architecture allows both online operation and controlled offline scenarios through locally installed processors.

POS systems often count much more than sales, creating gaps that can become a serious problem for tax authorities. Add cloud POS, e-commerce, offline operation, retries and multiple checkout channels, and a simple sequence of numbers quickly becomes a complex compliance architecture challenge.
