Despite the challenges, it is important to follow these requirements closely in order to avoid any legal or financial repercussions.

Turkey
Turkey has operated as a fiscal country since 1985 and has a long history of placing a strong emphasis on taxes as a source of government revenue. One of the key ways in which the country regulates its tax system is through the mandatory use of payment recording devices. Turkey was one of the pioneers in this regard, and the obligation to use these devices was introduced as early as July 1st, 1985. This requirement was a significant step in the regulation of the tax system in Turkey and helped to ensure that individuals and businesses were paying the correct amount of taxes. The use of payment recording devices remains an important aspect of the fiscal system in Turkey and is essential for ensuring compliance with tax regulations.
