Cash register (РРО)
Register requirements for a store
Key rules
Who needs a cash register
Sole traders on groups 2–4 with cash/card — physical or software register required (with exceptions). General system — always.
Software vs classic
Software register — free app (Diia/providers), runs on a phone; classic — hardware with fiscal memory.
Exceptions
Sales via bank branch/post, vending, market trade in certain cases — no register needed.
Fines
Sale without receipt — per-incident fine, larger on repeat; missing mandatory register — separate fine.
Software register is the fastest start: 15-min registration in Diia, receipts go to tax authority automatically. Keep Z-reports. Offline mode is limited — receipts queue locally without internet.
