The e-Tax Control Unit will save all needed information about each POS sale. The tax authorities can inspect the e-Tax Control Unit whenever they want.

Disclaimers:

  • Only the Tax Authorities, Skatteverket, can access the information on the Control Unit.
  • All POSs with type A fiscal devices must register with the tax authorities in Sweden (Skatteverket).

Each e-Tax Control Unit has a sticker containing the serial number, which is registered in LS Central BackOffice for the terminal it is connected to. The sticker must stay on the e-Tax Control Unit and not be removed.

After the registration is completed, the tax authorities send the unique stickers for the e-Tax Control Unit, one per POS.

The e-Tax Control Unit is prepared for each POS terminal and must always remain in the POS unit. If the unit is removed or is not working, the POS cannot finish its transaction or continue to sell.

The e-Tax control unit is connected to the POS terminal via USB.

Note: A green light will flash on the device when the installation is done correctly. See more information about the POS terminal settings on the Fiscal Page for Type A: e-Tax with the Control Unit.
