In a move to enhance tax compliance, Albania has classified vending machines as a type of electronic cash register. These machines, automatically distribute goods or provide services to consumers. By the legislation, vending machines are defined as devices that dispense goods or services upon payment through money, tokens, credit or debit cards, or similar methods. All sales made through these self-service devices, excluding e-banking and bank ATMs, must be fiscalized at the point of sale by transmitting sales data to the central tax administration.

Similar to regular electronic cash registers, vending machines are subject to specific fiscalization procedures in Albania, namely, when internet access is unavailable. This applies to machines located in areas without a permanent internet connection or during temporary communication service interruptions with the Tax Administration's IT system. In such cases, the fiscalization process must be completed monthly or within 48 hours of restoring the internet connection. Of course, more requirements must be respected. These measures aim to ensure accurate sales reporting and compliance with tax regulations, reflecting Albania's commitment to a transparent and efficient tax system, all by the fiscalization system that was introduced in Albania a few years ago.
