The State Fiscal Service will be authorized to fine money changer businesses for violating rules of operating fiscal cash registers under an amendment approved today by the Government, IPN reports.
At present, such violations are not sanctioned. The National Bank, which is the body supervising money changers, can detect yet cannot punish such violations. Under the new amendment, the National Bank will send the Fiscal Service a copy of the report ascertaining breaches of cash register operating rules, and the Service will subsequently impose fines.
Another amendment approved today formally enables money changers to operate change machines, which will have to have cash registers and issue receits as well. The amendment thus introduces a new definition, of “currency information system”.
