6. Accessory devices for taximeters

7. -

8. Regulations on accessory devices already exist (STAFS 2012:5) (uploaded as other document). These have previously been notified as technical rules. The draft regulation includes some changes to the existing provisions. The changes that are deemed to be of the greatest importance are:
- the serial number of the receipts/delivery bills produced for instalments during a driving assignment shall be the same and accompanied by the serial number of the instalment; and
- the accessory device need not be designed in such a way that it also prints a receipt or delivery bill in paper form, if it has a function for producing the documents electronically, in addition to the function for production in paper form.

The regulations on accessory devices are a national initiative. It follows from point 4 of Annex IX of the Measuring Instruments Directive (Directive 2014/32/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of measuring instruments) that Member States may require an accessory device to be connected to the interface of a taximeter.

9. The purpose of the draft regulation is primarily to facilitate the Swedish Tax Agency's control and to enable benefits for the environment by reducing the number of paper printouts.

The purpose of the existing regulations for accessory devices (STAFS 2012:5), which is now being amended, is primarily consumer protection, the promotion of effective fiscal supervision and the prevention of financial crime.

The regulations now proposed (and existing ones) are deemed to be proportionate to these objectives.

The documents that an accessory device shall be able to produce shall contain the information that the Swedish authorities need for their supervision in accordance with Swedish rules on, inter alia, tax and rest periods. An accessory device manufactured in accordance with foreign regulations will not provide the necessary information for the Swedish authorities. The information that the accessory device shall be able to produce is of decisive importance for the design of the accessory device. A foreign accessory device could not be easily adapted to produce the required documents in Sweden.

It should be noted that, apart from the information to be provided by the accessory device, the technical requirements for the accessory device are essentially the same as those applicable to taximeters under the Measuring Instruments Directive (2014/32/EU). This makes it easier for foreign manufacturers to enter the Swedish market.
