Summary

Turkey’s Revenue Administration published Version 2.0 of its technical guide governing receipts, electronic documents and reports produced by taxi fiscal devices on 17 August 2026. The guide replaces the initial version dated 11 June 2026 and defines minimum formats, standards and content for documents generated through qualifying devices. [ynokc.gib.gov.tr]
The update affects e-invoices and e-archive invoices produced by taxi fiscal devices. Reported changes include requirements concerning QR codes, signature-value information and an additional ETTN field. The guide also contains document examples for cash, card, mixed-payment and taxi-application transactions, together with required device-generated reports. [ynokc.gib.gov.tr]
Taxi operators, fiscal-device manufacturers, payment providers and e-document integrators should compare current configurations against Version 2.0. Testing should cover document layout, mandatory data, payment types, tax amounts, identifiers and reporting outputs. Changes should be deployed through controlled releases to avoid invalid invoices or incomplete fiscal-device records in production environments. [ynokc.gib.gov.tr]

Article

The Turkish Revenue Administration, or GİB, published Version 2.0 of the Technical Guide on Receipt, e-Document and Report Formats to be Issued by Taxi Fiscal Devices on 17 August 2026. The publication updates the first version of the guide, which was issued on 11 June 2026. [ynokc.gib.gov.tr]

The guide establishes the format, standards and minimum content of receipts, electronic documents and reports created through taxi fiscal devices. It was prepared in connection with General Communiqué No. 591 under the Turkish Tax Procedure Law, published in the Official Gazette on 13 February 2026. [ynokc.gib.gov.tr]

Version 2.0 affects the rules for e-invoices and e-archive invoices generated by taxi fiscal devices. The identified revisions concern QR code usage, the signature-value field and an additional ETTN field. These are technical changes, but they may have compliance implications where devices or connected systems cannot generate the revised document structure.

The guide includes formats for transactions paid in cash, by bank or credit card, through mixed payments and through taxi-booking applications. It also addresses receipts that serve as invoices and specifies reporting formats for devices producing fiscal receipts or electronic documents. Required reports include X, Y and Z reports, intraday reports, shift reports, daily sales reports, statistical reports and audit reports. [ynokc.gib.gov.tr]

Affected businesses should not limit their review to the visible invoice layout. Implementation work may also involve data mapping, device firmware, signature generation, QR code content, unique identifiers and communication between the taxi fiscal device, payment functionality and e-document platforms.

Manufacturers and integrators should perform regression testing across each supported payment scenario. Tests should verify VAT rates, VAT-inclusive amounts, journey details, payment values, taxi registration information, fiscal-device identifiers and the creation of the required reports.

Taxi businesses using third-party devices should obtain confirmation that their provider supports Version 2.0. Contractual responsibilities should also be reviewed, particularly where different vendors support the meter, payment function, fiscal device and e-document transmission.

The guide is technical in nature and should be read alongside the applicable communiqués and broader Turkish e-document requirements.
