Internet banking
The EU Funds Management Unit has decided that e-banking documents shall, as from the 25 May 2011, no longer need to be authenticated by the bank or financial provider. This means that payment documents issued from internet banking systems will be accepted as proof of payment.
However, it must be pointed out that the EU Funds Management Unit reserves the right to decline banking documents that are not sufficient or to the desired standard and request additional evidence of payment prior to the settlement of claims. For the avoidance of any doubt ‘print screen’ images and/or payment transactions still not confirmed as paid will NOT be accepted as evidence of payment.
Moreover, banking transactions are not an alternative to fiscal receipts, particularly when fiscal receipts are required by law.
