The winter recess begins on 21 December 2020 and ends on 15 January 2021 and will apply to all school children of primary and secondary schools on the territory of the Republic of Serbia.
The Serbian government decided to extend the validity of the measure to shorten working hours of restaurants, cafes, bars, clubs, bookmakers and shopping malls until 6 pm, and of shops and other retail stores until 9 pm - to 15 December 2020. All previously adopted measures remain in force.
At today's session, a Draft Law on Fiscalisation was adopted, which enables the Tax Administration to monitor and control more efficiently the taxpayers who are at risk of tax evasion.
It also enables an increase in the number of tax controls in the seat of the tax authority, which reduces the need for field controls.
The new law will enable more efficient control of all deliveries of goods and services provided at retail, including received advance payments for future trade in goods and services.
The legal solutions adopted stipulate that at the moment of a retail purchase, each receipt is fiscalised and the Tax Administration is sent data on the issued fiscal receipts via a permanent internet connection in real time.
The new model of fiscalisation envisages a comprehensive scope of fiscalisation, with the possibility to exempt certain activities from the obligation to record retail trade through an electronic fiscal device only in specially justified cases.
In addition, the proposed legal solution will eliminate the identified shortcomings of the current fiscalisation system (fiscalisation / defiscalisation procedure of fiscal cash registers, regular servicing, storage of control tapes, etc.) which reduces operating costs, eliminates unnecessary administration and creates a better business environment.
