Automated cash register reporting: fast, secure & compliant

Starting in 2025, businesses are required to register their cash registers with the tax authorities. The fiskaly SIGN DE x Submission API automates this process, replacing manual reporting via the ELSTER portal. This saves time and costs while minimizing manual effort.

With the fiskaly SIGN DE x Submission API, you can efficiently and accurately meet the legal requirements of §146a (4) AO.

Why automated cash register reporting?

From 2025, businesses must comply with a new requirement: All electronic cash registers, taximeters, and odometers must be reported to the tax authorities. The process is time-consuming and error-prone—especially if reporting is done manually via ELSTER or through a tax consultant.

The solution for cash register reporting

The fiskaly SIGN DE x Submission API automates the reporting process—directly from your cash register system. This not only saves time but is also significantly more cost-efficient than hiring a tax consultant.
