On the use of cash register equipment that does not meet the new requirements, from July 1, 2025.
The Ministry of Taxes and Levies draws attention to the fact that in accordance with the requirements of the fourth paragraph of point 17 and the fifth paragraph of point 25 of the Regulation on the use of cash and other equipment for receiving payment funds, approved by the resolution of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus and the National Bank of the Republic of Belarus dated 06.07.2011 No. 924/16 (in the version that comes into force on 01.07.2025, hereinafter - Regulation No. 924/16), from July 1, 2025, the use of cash equipment that does not meet the requirements established by the resolution of the Ministry of Taxes and Levies of the Republic of Belarus, the State Committee for Standardization of the Republic of Belarus dated 14.10.2022 No. 29/99 "On the requirements for cash summarizing devices, including those combined with taximeters, ticket printing machines" or the resolution of the Ministry of Taxes and Levies of the Republic of Belarus dated 29.03.2018 No. 10 "On the requirements for the software cash system, software cash register, operator of the software cash system and on the work of the commission for assessing compliance with the requirements" (in the version that comes into force on 01.07.2025) is not allowed.
Business entities that continue to use cash equipment that does not meet the new requirements after July 1, 2025, are subject to administrative liability as provided for in part one of Article 13.15 of the Code of the Republic of Belarus on administrative offenses, which provides for a fine of up to fifty basic units, for individual entrepreneurs - up to one hundred basic units (4,200 rubles), and for legal entities - up to two hundred basic units (8,400 rubles).
Considering the above, we draw attention to the fact that the amount of the possible fine is not comparable to the cost of updating or acquiring new cash equipment, therefore we suggest that business entities that have not carried out measures to update (replace) cash equipment immediately take measures to comply with the requirements of Regulation No. 924/16 and as soon as possible
acquire (replace) their cash equipment.
Reference. As of 26.05.2025, 76 models (modifications) of cash equipment that meet the new requirements are allowed for use in the Republic of Belarus, including:
46 models of cash summarizing devices, 30 of which support the sale of marked goods;
30 models of software cash registers, 29 of which support the sale of marked goods.
Current information on the refinement and cost of cash equipment is posted on the official website of the Ministry of Taxes and Levies at the link https://nalog.gov.by/tax_control/payment_control/documents/.
Additionally, we inform you that since the use of cash equipment that does not meet the new requirements is outside the legal field from July 1, 2025, the Ministry of Taxes and Levies may consider the issue of remote blocking of such cash equipment and its disconnection from the cash equipment control system after the specified date.
Considering that as of May 26, 2025, 94.6 thousand business entities have already installed and are using cash equipment, the deadlines for transitioning to cash equipment that meets the new requirements will not be extended!
