It did not prevent the digital clientele to be implemented and some branches are already demanding their exemption. According to the latest update, the new digital tool will begin to apply before Easter and will premiere with car businesses. That is:

  • Car rental
  • Washing machines
  • Workshops/ranchers
  • Parking

Many car professionals complain that the measure adds new burdens to businesses. According to entrepreneurs, the first and foremost costs are the system that will record its entrance and exit to the parking lot, the workshop or the washing machine. In addition, they argue that for its operation it needs to be hired by people who will handle it. If they choose to address the issue from the inside, the time of customer service will significantly increase with an impact on their work volume.

Similar complaints are expressed by car laundry professionals.

The tax administration does not, however, show any intention of exemption. All the more so when according to the plan for the implementation of the digital clientele – in essence a evolution of the old customer book – things look much simpler. This is an app on the mobile phone that is integrated into the Mydata platform.

Taking, for example, a parking lot, every car coming in to park will be recorded by scanning his plate from his professional phone. In real time the car sign (and not the name of the driver/owner of the IX) will be recorded in the digital clientele of Mydata. And when the car is leaving the parking lot, this time the receipt or invoice will be issued to close the transaction will be scanned this time.

All of these moves, AADE will be able to see them in real time as the application is interconnected with TAXIS. And whenever there is a smaller number of evidence than the movements then the business door will be knocked for further checks. In fact, there will also be the possibility of comparing the data of a particular business as recorded in the clientele with the data resulting from similar companies.

In the second stage, in the summer, the digital clientele is expected to extend to businesses organizing banquets, weddings, baptisms, gatherings and parties. And more and more businesses will be called upon to apply it such as gyms, aesthetics, physiotherapy centers, dance schools, hotels and organized accommodation, doctors and weddings and events.

In addition to complying in the new tax framework, the new tool helps businesses and managing their customers as it offers a number of functions such as:

  • Registration of new customers
  • Update and modify existing records
  • Customer cancellation without the need for manual document submission
  • Correlation of records with evidence and documents
  • Reduce errors that could lead to fines
