Statute overview

About this statute

The law aims to reduce the gray economy by limiting traders’ ability to fail to record income from cash sales and by helping buyers detect such sales. Lagen gäller för viss rörelse och yrkesutövning bara när omsättningen för en räkenskapsperiod överstiger 8 500 euro. Lagen gäller inte för vissa försäljningssituationer och verksamheter, bland annat automatförsäljning, lotteriverksamhet, utomhus marknads- och torghandel samt viss elektronisk handel och självständig betalning. A business operator must offer a receipt when a purchase is paid in cash or with a comparable cash-like payment method. This section assigns supervision over compliance to specific authorities and gives them inspection and test-buy powers, with conditions in some cases.
