At its meeting on Monday, the government unanimously supported the bill on sales registration, known as EET 2.0. If the legislative process goes according to plan, the obligation to electronically record sales will return to the Czech legal system on 1 January 2027. The Finance Ministry believes this will boost the state budget by more than CZK 14 billion a year and straighten out the business environment.

The proposal foresees a modernised technical infrastructure in the form of the MOJE EET application. The Ministry of Finance declares that it will provide entrepreneurs with a basic software solution free of charge in order to minimise the cost of acquiring the system. Operation should start in test mode as early as 1 December 2026, with a sharp start scheduled for the beginning of the following year. The draft also includes specific concessions for the catering segment to compensate for the administrative burden associated with the introduction of the records.

The draft now heads to the Chamber of Deputies for discussion, where an extensive debate is expected. While the ruling coalition emphasises more efficient tax collection and a reduction in the grey economy, opposition parties have long disagreed with the reintroduction of sales registration and criticised it as an unnecessary bureaucratic burden for small traders. In addition to the Sales Registration Act itself, the government’s package contains accompanying changes to other laws that regulate related tax parameters.
