- Fiscalization in Albania was introduced with high expectations to reduce informality, tax evasion, and build trust between the state and taxpayers through technological modernization.
- Technically, the system has standardized communication, improved information flow, and reduced opportunities for manipulation and discretionary intervention.
- Institutional progress has lagged behind technical improvements, with large businesses adapting more easily than small, especially peripheral, businesses, which face higher costs and capacity challenges.
- Compared to the region, Albania has made progress but still lags behind countries that combine fiscalization with risk-based audits and intelligent data use.
- Fiscalization has increased tax revenues, especially in VAT and indirect taxes, by expanding the tax base and reducing underreporting, but the impact should be viewed realistically.
