How To Configure Fiscal Romania
Fiscal Overview
For shared background, see Fiscal Overview.
Romania Fiscalisation Introduction
In Romania, POS fiscalisation is a legal requirement for businesses to ensure accurate and transparent financial reporting.
It is important for businesses in Romania to select a certified fiscal solution and ensure proper installation and configuration of the system to meet fiscalisation requirements. Failure to comply with POS fiscalisation regulations can result in penalties, fines, or legal consequences.
Overall, POS fiscalisation in Romania aims to enhance transparency, combat tax evasion, and streamline the process of tax collection by leveraging electronic recording and reporting of sales transactions.
The Enactor solution works with the new Epson T810 printer supplied by Sintezis, approved by the Romania Tax Authority for fiscalisation. This avoids the need for the POS solution to be certified, instead relying on the certification obtained by Sintezis. At the time of writing the Sintezis solution is unique in the market in this respect. All other solutions would require a POS certification in addition to the hardware certification and it is for this reason that the Sintezis solution was selected.
