Bulgaria's National Revenue Agency (NRA) has sealed a petrol station near Burgas for 30 days because staff again failed to issue a receipt, for the second time in less than a year. The NRA said the administrative measure was imposed on Tuesday, 10 November.

Inspectors from the agency's Fiscal Control chief directorate checked the site. They found that an employee sold a bottle of propane-butane gas for household use without properly registering the sale. The customer paid by card but got no fiscal receipt.

The inspectors asked for data from the fiscal device (the cash register) and from the POS terminal used for card payments. The two differ by €21, the price of the bottle.

The station has been penalised before for the same offence. The decree for the earlier missing receipt has been in force since 6 May 2026. The NRA says the repeat attempt to avoid recording sales correctly is the reason for the sealing.

The agency advises customers to check for themselves whether traders record their income. The NRA Mobile app reads the QR code on the receipt. It can be downloaded from the App Store for iOS and from Google Play.

The NRA information centre takes reports by phone on 0700 18 700 and at [email protected]. These can be about missing receipts, fake payment documents or documents that lack required details. It also takes reports of other tax and social security violations.
