The Parliament of the Czech Republic approved the complete abolition of EET

On December 14, 2022, the Senate approved the Ministry of Finance's proposal to repeal the Sales Registration Act. The law is now headed for signature by the President of the Republic and will subsequently be published in the Collection of Laws. It can therefore be assumed with a high degree of probability that the law will enter into force on January 1, 2023.

The law abolishing the obligation to register sales does not include the continued operation of the EET system by the Financial Administration, even for voluntarily registering. The EET system will not be functional as of January 1, 2023. If, even after this date, sales data are sent from the cash register, this data will not be registered, and the cash register will not receive a fiscal identification code (FIK) from the tax administrator.

This legal regulation does not only cancel the registration obligation itself, i.e., the obligation to send sales data to the tax administrator and issue receipts in the sense of the Sales Registration Act, but all obligations arising from the Sales Registration Act, i.e., the obligation to post information notices, protect authentication data, issue certificates, and block receipts (if taxpayers have already received them for the purpose of fulfilling obligations under the special regime).
