RKSV compliance with the efsta EFR

A central element of the RKSV is the use of a security device that must be used for document signatures. Upon request, special data exports such as a DEP7 report must be presented and a connection to the Ministry of Finance's online financial portal (FON-BMF) must be established for the purpose of data exchange. By using the efsta EFR middleware, you are compliant with the law!

What is the RKSV?

Since April 1, 2017, cash registers in Austria have had to be equipped with signature creation units (SEE) in accordance with the Cash Register Security Ordinance (RKSV) in order to prevent the manipulation of recording systems.

With the use of efsta EFR solutions, you are RKSV compliant - this means:

  • Signature creation units (SEE) for cash registers: For protection against manipulation and tax fraud.
  • Tamper protection: Every cash register must have a technical security device that digitally signs transactions and thus prevents tampering - Integration of signature smartcards and remote signature services: Ensuring the authenticity and integrity of receipts.
  • Audit-proof archiving of fiscal data for the legally prescribed period of at least 10 years Automation of receipts: Monthly and annual receipts are automatically generated and optionally transmitted to the FON online finance portal
  • Automation of receipts: Monthly and annual vouchers are generated and reported automatically.
  • FinanzOnline (FON) connection: Automated registration/deregistration of cash registers and associated keys/certificates.

Monitoring and control mechanisms: The efsta fiskal monitoring and escalation system for failures automatically transmits messages to the FinanzOnline system if necessary.

Our system thus ensures that companies in Austria not only meet the RKSV requirements, but can also integrate them into their business processes in an efficient and uncomplicated manner.
