Bus drivers will be obliged to use the online cash

23 November 2018

Beginning July 1, 2019 buses should be equipped with online cash

In many buses, especially if we are talking about large cities, there is already a terminal that accepts credit cards or special transport card. But soon bus drivers will have to use another device — online-the cashier.

Russia's Finance Ministry in letter No. 03-01-15/76375 from October 24, 2018 reminded that the responsibility for the application of kontrolno-cash technics (KKT) public transport is introduced from 1 July 2019. Driver or conductor when you pay will have to conduct a transaction through the online cashier and give the passenger a receipt. The cashier needs to be registered to a company or an individual entrepreneur carrying out the transfer.

the desire of the Federal tax service (FNS) can understand she is trying to take control of the movement of each of the ruble in the country. It is hard to imagine the use of online cash registers in buses. First, the driver will have more and more distracted from the road in connection with the use of the CCP.

second, will increase the costs of carriers. Not only that, you will have to buy itself online cash (and the price tags start from 20 thousand rubles), so also it is necessary to provide a permanent access to the Internet, and this is another device that also costs money, Yes, and increases communication costs.

And FNS promotes the control of the passengers: tax talks about a special mobile application, which allows you to test the legality of cash receipt. If necessary, it is also possible to report abuse. For example, if the driver has issued a bad check or not issued at all.
