Changes in the fiscal checks of the pECR from January 1, 2025

The Ministry of Finance, through the Order No. 601, has introduced changes that will affect the appearance and content of fiscal receipts generated by ECR. If you are already using Torgsoft and everything is set up correctly, please note the following:

Simplified product name

It is now allowed to use simplified product names according to DK 016:2010 (e.g., short names or codes), if stipulated by law. If your Torgsoft already has full names, you do not need to change them, but if needed, you can apply short names.

Errors in product names

A minor error in the product name no longer invalidates the receipt as long as the transaction itself is correctly reflected. If you accidentally make a spelling mistake in the product name, it will not be a problem.

Electronic receipt format

It is not necessary to print the receipt—it can be generated electronically. If you were printing receipts, you can continue doing so, or send an electronic receipt to the customer. This is implemented in Torgsoft.

Fiscal numbers for ECRs

If you are using ECR, the fiscal number of the document is assigned by the fiscal server using its own algorithm. This internal change is automated, so you don’t need to do anything.

Excise goods (alcohol, tobacco)

If you sell alcohol or tobacco products, receipts must now include additional parameters:

For alcohol: alcohol strength and bottle volume.

For tobacco: weight and number of units in the pack.

This is implemented in Torgsoft.

If you do not sell excise goods, this will not affect your receipts.

QR code in a new format

The receipt will contain a QR code in the new format. These internal changes ensure ease of receipt verification by the customer or controlling authorities. This parameter is still being clarified, and if changes affect Torgsoft ECR users, they will be implemented in the new update.

Customer passport data

This requirement applies only to duty-free shops and the sale of excise goods with refund options. If you have a regular retail store and do not engage in duty-free trade, you will not need this.

Payment methods on the receipt

If the customer pays for the product using different methods (cash, card, certificate, etc.), each payment method will be displayed as a separate line on the receipt. This is implemented in Torgsoft.

If you are a regular entrepreneur using Torgsoft and not selling excise goods, almost nothing will change for you.
