According to the aforementioned Bill on Amendments to the Law on Fiscalization in Cash Transactions, the procedure for registering tips in the fiscalization system would take place in such a way that the person subject to fiscalization issues a fiscalized receipt for the sale of goods or services to the recipient of the bill. The recipient of the bill pays the bill (by card or cash) and, according to his own judgment, decides whether to leave a tip and in what amount. The person subject to fiscalization, together with the fiscalized receipt, immediately reports the realized tip via the electronic payment device. The tip is registered in the fiscalization system in such a way that data on the amount of the tip as well as the method of giving it (cash, card) are submitted, and when submitting this information about the tip, the other data previously submitted through the fiscalized account are not changed. We also note that the content of the fiscalized receipt does not change in terms of showing the amount of the tip on the bill, nor is it necessary to void the receipt in order to register tips in the fiscalization system, but the tip is reported according to the previously mentioned procedure.
