Fiscal law comparison between countries (major differences) - Poland, Italy, and Bulgaria
The purpose of this document is to provide the most important information about fiscalization in Poland Italy and Bulgaria, with an accent on the comparison between these countries. We can say that these countries belong to a hardware-based type of fiscalization. That means that there is mandatory to use hardware devices for fiscalization. In other words, there is an obligation to use predefined and homologated or certified fiscal devices in a hardware solution. That is, let’s say, the main similarity but of course, rules are very different in other terms. Meaning: every county established its rules and specifications, but we can group Poland, Italy and Bulgaria in one group-hardware-based fiscalization system. Read more
