- As of the 2025 Finance Act, self-certification of cash registers is prohibited, requiring businesses to obtain compliance certificates from accredited third-party bodies like Infocert or LNE for their software.
- Companies using non-compliant cash register software face a fine of €7,500 per system, with an additional €7,500 fine applicable after a 60-day compliance window if corrective actions are not taken.
- Businesses must act quickly to either obtain the necessary certification or consult their software suppliers to ensure compliance, and publishers of cash register systems in France also need to secure certification to support their clients’ legal obligations.
