Deputies rushed to vote on key laws and amendments in recent days
In addition to paper, a cash receipt will be able to be issued electronically and sent by email, in a profile on the customer’s website or in a mobile application. This was accepted by the deputies of the budget committee with changes in the second reading in the Law on the introduction of the euro.
However, there is a condition – that traders use software approved by the National Revenue Agency for reporting sales. The amendment provides that the electronic vouchers prove that the purchased goods or services are registered in the NRA server and that VAT has been paid for them.
Each electronic note will have a unique number
of the sale, the date of opening and closing of the transaction, the amount due, the customer’s identification number or his email will also be written.
The reasons for the change are that it will facilitate the introduction of the euro, because it will require readjustment of the cash registers. The electronic receipt option makes it possible to do this faster.
The other texts of the law remain the same. It will be possible to pay with BGN and EUR one month after the introduction of the new currency. Traders will indicate prices in BGN and EUR for one year. On the date of acceptance, all bank accounts will be converted once, automatically and free of charge at the current fixed exchange rate. Only Euros will be withdrawn from the same date.
The law stipulates that the BNB can exchange BGN free of charge and without time limit. In the first 6 months after the introduction of the euro, banks and post offices will also do so free of charge.
Deputies rushed through the adoption of key laws
and corrections in their last working days.
The budget committee also voted on the law on credit institutions, VAT amendments and even ratified an agreement on military vehicles.
They agreed to add the border services to the list of institutions that have access to the accounts of citizens and companies after a court decision. The reasons for this amendment are contained in the European Anti-Money Laundering Directive.
The Commission also approved the ratification of a contract for ammunition for Stryker machines submitted by the Ministry of Defense. Estimated value is $64,880,655.
