Fiscalization in Sweden is based on the fiscal device-control unit or control system, which is an important part of fiscalization. The main function of this device is to sign and store transactions.

Type of fiscalization: hardware/ software

Fiscalization has been mandatory in Sweden since 2010, requiring all cash and card transactions to be recorded through a cash register system and accompanied by a receipt offered to the customer. The framework is built around a cash register connected to a certified control unit (as hardware solution) or control system (as software/cloud solution) , which securely stores, signs, and verifies transaction data, while the cash register itself is subject to a manufacturer’s declaration rather than formal certification. Businesses are required to register their cash registers and control units with the Swedish Tax Agency, comply with strict technical and reporting obligations, and ensure the secure storage and export of fiscal data, including XML-based data extraction.
