efsta Compliance as a Service: The secure solution
to comply with the regulations of the German Cash Security Ordinance (KassensichV) in force since 2020 and to fiscalize correctly:.
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.
Since December 22, 2016, the Federal Ministry of Finance (BMF) has created a new regulation of § 146a AO in the "Cash Register Act". According to this, electronic recording systems (cash register systems) must have a certified technical security device – TSE for short – from January 1, 2020. This TSE is intended to prevent manipulation of the 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 it, and special data exports such as TSE tar files or a DSFinV-K export must be presented on request – with the use of the efsta EFR middleware, you are compliant with the law!
We have the solution! Starting with the required receipt chaining, the use of TSEs and the DSFinV-K data exports – efsta stands for legal compliance! All BSI certified TSEs – regardless of whether they are hardware or cloud-based – can be used with efsta middleware – you decide which TSE best suits your POS solution – technology-neutral!
Selected TSEs can be purchased in the efsta portal and configured with the efsta system either by self-configuration or centrally - even TSE changes are easy to administer!
