POS and Cash Registers: 5% Tolerance, Penalties, and Tax Settlement

  • D.Lgs. 148/2026 introduces a 5% tolerance for numerical discrepancies between electronic payments received and the recorded/stored transactions, but this does not apply to the separate requirement to link each POS to the telematic cash register (or web procedure).
  • From 1 January 2026, businesses must both transmit aggregated electronic payment data with daily receipts and electronically communicate the POS-to-register association.
  • Failure to make or late making of the POS/telematic register link is subject to a penalty of EUR 1,000 to EUR 4,000.
  • The omission can be regularized through ravvedimento operoso by filing the linkage communication and paying the reduced penalty, provided the conditions for voluntary disclosure are met.
  • The inability to backdate the communication on the portal does not prevent regularization, since the system records the actual date of compliance.
