What does it mean?
The standard aims to establish the way in which billing records produced by computer systems must comply with the legal requirements of integrity, conservation, accessibility, legibility, traceability and inalterability.
For this primary purpose, the Royal Decree defines an invoice register, with a specific format and structure, to which certain computer security elements are added (chained hashes and electronic signature) that ensure that said register cannot be modified, after it has been produced, without the corresponding record of said modification remaining.
This regulation is colloquially known as the 'Veri*factu Regulation', referring to the simplest and most efficient method for complying with the standard by sending the billing records to the electronic headquarters of the Tax Agency at the time of their production.
Goods and services must be taxable under Spanish VAT law. Based on this, several types of VAT rates apply:
- ES_FISKALY_VAT: It applies to goods and services taxed at the standard VAT rate.
- ES_FISKALY_TAXABLE_EXEMPT_1, ES_FISKALY_TAXABLE_EXEMPT_2, ES_FISKALY_TAXABLE_EXEMPT_3, ES_FISKALY_TAXABLE_EXEMPT_4, ES_FISKALY_TAXABLE_EXEMPT_5 and ES_FISKALY_TAXABLE_EXEMPT_6: These rates apply to exceptions or goods and services with reduced VAT rates under the law (Reduced VAT rates).
- ES_FISKALY_NON_TAXABLE_1, ES_FISKALY_NON_TAXABLE_2, ES_FISKALY_NON_TAXABLE_3 and ES_FISKALy_NON_TAXABLE_4: these rates apply to non-taxable goods and services.
Below, we’ll guide you on how to enable the integration, how to assign the correct VAT rate to your products, and more.
What should I do?
First, you’ll need to activate the 'Veri*factu' regulation for your account. To do this, please contact our support team (support@palisis.com) or your Customer Success Manager.
Once activated, we can proceed with the setup of the account, products and devices in the back office.
Account and product setup
Create the correct VAT rates. To do this, navigate to Account > Taxation and edit your VAT rates.
In this example, we have two distinct business units: one for 'Tours' and another for 'Buses.' According to the law, we must apply different VAT rates to each business unit. We will start with 'Tours':
In this video, we will create the new VAT rate:
Next, we proceed with the 'Buses' business unit. In this case, we must apply a reduced VAT rate in accordance with the law.
In the following video, we create the reduced VAT rate using one of the TAXABLE_EXEMPT types and assign the correct VAT rate to the product.
Once we have finished creating the VAT rates and assigning them to the products, we can proceed with the device setup.
Once Palisis confirms that everything is set up, you can make a test booking, log in to the device and use it as usual.
Booking in backoffice
The booking in the back office will display the tax information from the back box and the receipt ID under the Payments & Refunds tab. This applies in the same way for devices and Boxoffice bookings.
