Fiscalization Germany

Strict rules for the operation of cash register systems have been in force in Germany since 2016 in order to prevent manipulation of digital records. The pioneer was the so-called "Cash Register Act", from which further regulations and laws are derived.   

Since January 1, 2020, electronic cash register systems must be secured by a technical security device (TSE). This ensures that all business transactions are recorded completely and tamper-proof. 

As a middleware solution with integrated TSE, our fiscal product offers you exactly that - and more. 

Currently, a POS system in Germany must meet the following requirements: 

• Individual recording: all processes and business transactions are documented individually, completely, correctly, in a timely and orderly manner. 

• Technical security: Your records are reliably protected by a certified TSE. 

• Data backup and archiving: Backup and availability of all digital records for audits and cash register inspections. 

• Obligation to produce receipts: Every customer automatically receives a receipt for the purchase made. 

• Reporting obligation: Your cash register system is reported to the tax office punctually and correctly within one month. This applies to both the purchase and decommissioning of the system.
