- The Ministry of Finance proposed a new Sales Registration Act in February 2026 to reintroduce electronic sales registration (EET 2.0) from 2027.
- The proposal includes reducing VAT on non-alcoholic beverages served in restaurants from 21% to 12%, aligning it with the VAT rate for food.
- The reduced VAT rate will not apply to takeaway drinks, requiring restaurants and cafes to differentiate VAT rates based on consumption method.
- The proposal is currently under internal review and may change before final approval.
