Introduction
Fiscalization of PoS and cash register systems in Italy has been in place since 1983. In 2015 the Legislative decree No. 127/2015, applicable as of 2018, introduced new technical requirements that are now the basis for a tamper-proof operation of cash registers in Italy.
The electronic storage and telematic transmission of daily transactions can be done through the usage of:
- RT devices (telematic register devices),
- RT servers,
- "Online Commercial Document" web procedure as an alternative to RT hardware, or
- Approved software solutions, compliant with the technical specifications of March 7, 2025.
