Ticket Bai is a joint project of the Provincial Treasuries of Bizkaia, Araba, Gipuzkoa and Navarre and the Basque Government, which aims to facilitate taxpayers' compliance with their obligations and fight against tax fraud. To protect the consumer and maintain an exhaustive control of economic activities. Taking this into account, it is clear that this is a procedure that will be implemented throughout Spain in the short term.
The measure already exists in other European countries such as Sweden, Austria or Portugal and is aimed at all taxpayers, both companies and self-employed, who receive payments for the sale of goods or services to their customers.
