The Government of Serbia has decided to once again extend the deadline for the mandatory recording of sales at market stalls using electronic fiscal devices. According to the latest amendment to the Regulation on Business Activities Exempt from Sales Recording, market vendors will be exempt from this obligation until December 31, 2025. This decision was published in the Official Gazette of the Republic of Serbia and came into effect on December 21, 2024.
The extension was granted due to the specific working conditions at market stalls and technical challenges in implementing fiscalization. Although the original plans anticipated an earlier introduction of fiscal cash registers, it became clear that there are still no fully developed technical solutions for efficiently applying this system in market environments. The government’s decision allows additional time for adjustments and for resolving any technical and organizational issues.
The fiscalization exemption applies to the sale of goods and services at market stalls and similar establishments. This means that vendors at markets will not be required to record each transaction using fiscal devices, nor will they have to report advance payments through the fiscal system. This provides significant relief for small traders and producers operating at markets, as it avoids additional administrative and financial burdens.
The decision to postpone fiscalization also raises questions about when the necessary technical conditions will finally be met and when market vendors will have to adapt to the new system. In the coming period, the government will monitor the situation and seek solutions that would enable seamless fiscalization without disrupting the operations of small traders.
What is certain is that market vendors now have another year to prepare for potential changes. However, uncertainty remains regarding how this process will develop further. In the meantime, market vendors can continue their business operations under the existing rules, without the obligation of fiscalization, which allows them greater flexibility and a simpler way of doing business.
