Article 3(4) is amended to read as follows: (4) The fiscal memory is a unique recordable device in the fiscal module, which must necessarily allow the progressive accumulation of data, without them being modifyable or erased, as well as their preservation in time for a period of five years.

Therefore, the tax authorities can carry out inspections only within this term of 5 years based on this change that was adopted.
