Digital Receipts Gain Traction: Buyers Can Still Request Paper Copies, Electronic Format Preferred

Buyers can still request a paper copy, but the standard will be electronic document delivery.
Many retail chains have already adopted digital receipts for documenting retail transactions.
This procedure is allowed by current regulations, though not yet widespread.
The regulation from December 7, 2016, allows commercial documents to be issued electronically with the recipient’s agreement, ensuring authenticity and integrity.
For virtual printing, the buyer must first accept the electronic format.
