Greece’s new ‘smart’ cash register rules target restaurants

·

Greek restaurants and similar venues must now use new “smart” cash registers for customers, according to Ekathimerini.com

These devices automatically report sales and table orders to tax authorities even before bills are paid, aiming to reduce tax evasion.

The system records all orders and prevents transactions from being erased, effectively eliminating fraudulent receipts.

Restaurants, pizzerias, and snack bars must adhere to the new regulations or risk inspections and penalties.

Exemptions apply to restaurants in villages with fewer than 500 residents and on islands with fewer than 3,100 residents, excluding tourist areas.
