Highlight

The fiscalization system in Slovakia is a specific mix of the fiscalization requirements in relation to hardware devices and software solutions. It is obligatory to use certificated fiscal devices, as well as to establish an obligatory online connection of all cash registers to the eKasa system. The country adopted the euro (€) on 1 January 2009.

The core feature of the fiscalization process is the real-time transmission of transaction data to the Tax Authority and the authorization of each individual transaction.

Type of fiscalization: Hardware/Software

Slovakia introduced mandatory fiscalization gradually from 2019, requiring all retailers to use electronic cash registers connected online to the Financial Administration, with every transaction reported and authorized in real time via the e-Kasa system. The framework defines who is subject to fiscalization, the types of permitted cash registers (electronic, POS with fiscal printer, online and virtual cash registers), and establishes e-Kasa as the central system that assigns unique receipt identifiers and manages real-time responses, including offline and timeout rules. It also sets strict technical and certification requirements for cash registers and POS solutions, including certification by authorities, protected data storage, internet connectivity, and defined procedures for exemptions and delayed data transmission

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.
