As previously indicated, there are a lot of fiscalization-related requirements that the seller must fulfill. In other words, sellers must acquire a cash register and control unit, and properly setup them. In addition, there are other requirements that sellers must be aware of and meet in order to comply with the laws that are created by legal and technical legislation. To summarize, we can say that:

- Issue a Z-day report for every day you've had sales.
- Keep the cash register control strip or journal for seven years.
- Enter the proper payment method.
