Highlight
Businesses in Panama must issue a fiscal receipt or electronic invoice for every sale of goods or provision of services, using either an authorized fiscal device or the Electronic Invoicing System (SFEP).
Panama
Panama has a hybrid fiscalization system combining certified fiscal devices with electronic invoicing (SFEP). Businesses must issue fiscal receipts or electronic invoices and communicate fiscal data to the tax authority, either through daily Z reports or electronic invoice authorization. POS applications do not require government certification, while fiscal devices must be certified and comply with mandatory hardware requirements.
Type of fiscalization: Hybrid
Fiscalization can be based on the fiscal device (hardware) or based on e-invocating (software).
