🧾 PRRO registration in Lviv: step-by-step guide + Checkbox (2026)

💬 "How do I register a PRRO in Lviv?", "How much does it cost?", "What does an FOP need?" — business owners in Lviv ask us these questions every week.

Below is a practical guide: from a qualified e-signature and DPS applications to connecting Checkbox and issuing your first test receipt. No fluff — just a checklist and prices.

🧭 Who needs a PRRO in Lviv

PRRO (software fiscal register) is a "cash register inside an app": it runs on a regular computer, tablet, phone or POS terminal and sends receipts to the tax service (DPS) online. You must use RRO or PRRO for cash and card payments if you are:

• an FOP of group 2, 3 or 4 (single tax);
• an LLC or an FOP on the general system;
• a shop, cafe, coffee shop, salon or online store in Lviv.

A PRRO is not required for group 1 FOPs, or when payment arrives as a bank transfer to an IBAN. ⚠️ But QR acquiring and card terminals are fiscal operations.

⚖️ PRRO vs classic RRO

For most Lviv businesses a PRRO is cheaper and faster — no cash register to buy or take to a service center.

✅ What you need to register a PRRO

• a qualified e-signature (KES) for the FOP/owner — Diia.Signature or a bank e-signature;
• access to the taxpayer's Electronic Cabinet at tax.gov.ua;
• details of the business unit (outlet address);
• cash software: Checkbox, DPS PRRO or ResPOS Market;
• equipment (optional): a PRRO-compatible receipt printer, barcode scanner, POS terminal.

📝 PRRO registration step by step

Step 1. Get a qualified e-signature

The fastest option is Diia.Signature in the Diia app (free), or a bank/CA signature. You sign all DPS applications with it.

Step 2. File application No. 1-PRRO (register the cash register)

In the Electronic Cabinet → "PRRO registration" → create an application under form No. 1-PRRO: specify the PRRO type, cash software, outlet address and operating mode. DPS usually registers the PRRO within one business day.

Step 3. File application No. 5-PRRO (register the cashier)

Then submit a No. 5-PRRO application for each cashier. Without it, no one may issue receipts.

Step 4. Connect Checkbox

Sign up with Checkbox (checkbox.ua), add the fiscal number of the PRRO received from DPS and link your e-signature. Checkbox syncs with your product catalogue.

Step 5. Test receipts

Open a shift, issue a test receipt and verify it in the DPS cabinet. After that you can work in live mode.

🖥 Equipment you need for a PRRO in Lviv

Checkbox is software, so it can even run on a phone. For a shop or cafe, it is more convenient to use:

• a POS terminal (Wintec NPOS50/NPOS60, AnyPos);
• a receipt printer REGO (P58D, P80C, TL21) — PRRO compatible;
• a barcode scanner SuperLead;
• retail scales CAS for weighted goods.

All of it is available in Lviv — set up and tested with a first receipt, turnkey.

💰 How much PRRO registration costs

• DPS PRRO — free (but without inventory integration);
• Checkbox — from UAH 348/mo (standard) or UAH 393/mo (extended, with Aircheck);
• registering the cash register with DPS — UAH 0 (administrative service);
• equipment kit — from a few thousand UAH (you can start with a receipt printer).

🚫 Penalties for working without a PRRO

100% of the value of goods sold for the first detected violation and up to 150% for each subsequent one. DPS performs test purchases without warning, so skimping on fiscalisation is not worth it. 💸
