efsta Compliance as a Service:
The secure solution for complying with the KassensichV regulations in force since 2020 and for correct fiscalization.
The Cash Register Security Ordinance of the German Federal Ministry of Finance defines standards to prevent cash register manipulation. As of September 30, 2020, German cash registers must have a technical security device (TSE). This stores transactions, issues a code and secures the data for the tax office.
On December 22, 2016, the Federal Ministry of Finance (BMF) introduced a new provision, Section 146a of the German Fiscal Code (AO), as part of the "Cash Register Act." According to this provision, electronic recording systems (cash register systems) must be equipped with a certified technical security device—abbreviated as TSE—as of January 1, 2020. This TSE is intended to prevent tampering with digital (cash register or receipt) data.
In Germany, cash registers must be connected to a certified TSE in accordance with the KassensichV; all business transactions must be signed by this device, and upon request, specific data exports such as TSE tar files or a DSFinV-K export must be provided—by using efsta Fiscal Middleware, you are in compliance with the law.
From the required receipt chaining and the use of TSEs to DSFinV-K data exports, efsta ensures legal compliance. All BSI-certified TSEs—whether hardware- or cloud-based—can be integrated using efsta Fiscal Middleware. You decide which TSE best suits your POS solution—with complete technology flexibility.
