Highlight
Albania has been a fiscal country since 2009. It operates an online fiscalization system under which the issuance of fiscal receipts is mandatory. While a POS application does require certification, communication with the Tax Authority is required. There is no obligation for certification of fiscal devices. The official currency used in Albania is the lek (ALL).
Albania
Shifting from a hardware-based fiscalization system, in 2020 Albania introduced an online fiscalization into the country and made POS application certification mandatory. The fiscalization procedure is based on real-time communication between the taxpayer and the tax authorities, via the exchange of XML messages.
Type of fiscalization: Online
