Fiscal Law timeline

The fiscalization system in France is known for its distinct characteristics and complexity compared to other fiscal systems in Europe. This is due to the specific requirements and regulations set forth by the government, which must be strictly followed by businesses. One key aspect of the fiscalization system in France is that it is based on the use of certified solutions. This means that all point-of-sale (POS) systems must be certified by the government before they can be used for financial transactions. This certification process helps to ensure that all systems comply with the regulations set forth by the government and accurately record financial transactions. Overall, the fiscalization system in France is designed to promote transparency, accuracy, and fairness in financial transactions, and helps to ensure the stability of the tax system. The use of certified solutions and strict adherence to regulations are crucial components of this system and contribute to its unique and complex nature.

The French fiscalization system is designed to prevent fraud related to data alteration or software modifications. It was officially implemented on January 1st, 2018. To ensure compliance with the law, there are five key requirements that must be met. These include the certification process, the signing and sequencing of data, the fiscalization of transactions, regular reporting, and the preservation of archival data. These measures ensure that the financial records kept by businesses are accurate, secure, and transparent. All POS functions are checked in the certification process.

Type of fiscalization: Software

In accordance with the French fiscalization law, all point-of-sale (POS) systems must be certified by a certified body such as InfoCert or LNE. The transactions performed through these systems must be digitally signed in real-time, and the records of these transactions must be saved, including the date and time elements. Archiving of these records is also mandatory and requires a digital signature. In addition, all system events must be signed and recorded for later reference. This stringent fiscalization system aims to ensure that all financial transactions are secure and tamper-proof, making the process of tax calculation and collection more accurate and efficient.
