Fiscalisation in Germany

KassenSichV: TSE, DSFinV-K and DATEV in one system

In Germany, every till must record each transaction in a tamper-proof way. Vectis connects a certified TSE (technical security system), creates the daily closing and exports the data for tax audits and your tax adviser.

Vectis is KassenSichV-compliant: we work with fiskaly's BSI-certified cloud TSE (fiskaly sign, certificate BSI-K-TR-0717-2025). Every transaction is signed through it.

Building blocks

What Vectis handles for fiscalisation

  1. TSE signatureEvery transaction is signed via the fiskaly cloud TSE (fiskaly sign) — cloud only, no USB module at the till.
  2. Daily closingZ closings are created in the system, shown before saving and stored.
  3. DSFinV-K exportVectis generates the export for cash inspections (Kassen-Nachschau) and tax audits itself, from its own till data — as a ZIP file for the selected closings or period.
  4. DATEV exportExport bookings in DATEV format for your tax adviser.

Cloud

Vectis is a cloud POS — including the TSE

Signing runs exclusively through fiskaly's BSI-certified cloud TSE. No USB module at the till, no hardware TSE.

Cloud TSE

fiskaly sign

BSI-certified (BSI-K-TR-0717-2025). Every transaction is signed in the cloud; the connection is set up per location in the Nexus portal.

No hardware TSE

Nothing to plug in, nothing to swap

No TSE modules at the till: no installation and no replacement when a module fails or expires. Fiscal data for all locations is available in the Nexus portal.

Good to know

The TSE is certified, not the till

Section 146a of the German Fiscal Code (AO) requires electronic recording systems to be protected „durch eine zertifizierte technische Sicherheitseinrichtung“ — by a certified technical security system. So it is the TSE that is certified. Vectis works with the certified fiskaly cloud TSE.

Notification duty since 1 January 2025

Since 01.01.2025 the notification duty under § 146a (4) AO applies: electronic till systems are reported to the tax office via ELSTER. Newly acquired systems „innerhalb eines Monats nach der Anschaffung“ — within one month of purchase.
