The possibility of changing the payment media of the fiscalized receipt

On 15.12.2021 Croatian Tax Authority published a new version of the Technical Specification for Users v 2.2 and WSDL files for the test and production environment. Starting from this date, for the taxpayers who wish to do so, in the test environment, the method of sending data on the correction of the issued receipt related to the change of the payment media is enabled. In order to correct the receipt, the taxpayer submits identical data from the original receipt, and in the additional field of the new XML scheme change of the payment, media must be submitted. The taxpayer must submit the receipt correction on the same day as the original receipt.

Furthermore, starting from 01.01.2022 taxpayers who wish to do so will be able to use the possibility of correcting the receipt or receipt issued on the basis of the accompanying document in the production environment, where it will be possible to change only the payment media without changing other receipt data. This change has to be done on the same day, until midnight, when the original receipt was issued.

If the taxpayer, due to technical difficulties, cannot change the payment media on the same day, until midnight, using this method, changing the payment media by this method after midnight is no longer possible. In that case, the taxpayer changes the payment media through regular methods and already stipulated rules for fiscalization of the receipt and the receipt related to the accompanying document. That means that this is done by voiding the previous receipt and then issuing and fiscalizing the receipt with the correct payment media.

All of the above stated will be stipulated by the Amendment to the Ordinance on fiscalization in cash transactions, which will enter into force on 01.01.2022.
