What is it?

CESOP: What you need to know

The Central Electronic System of Payment information (CESOP) is an EU initiative that imposes obligations on Payment Service Providers (PSPs). The regulation requires the collection and sharing of payment data to combat VAT fraud across Europe more effectively.​

What is CESOP?

Does it affect me?

If you are a Payment Service Provider (PSP) registered in any of the EU’s 27 member states, then you are likely to be affected. PSPs are Credit Institutions, Electronic Money Institutions, Post office giro institutions and Payment Institutions. ​

What do I need to do?

Under CESOP, PSPs are required to report the details of cross boarder transactions that they process. If you handle more than 25 cross-border payments for the same payee within a calendar quarter, the payer or payee (depending on the scenario) will be required to report information on these transactions to the local tax authority.

What's the deadline?

CESOP data is reported on a quarterly basis, you are required to file within a month of the calendar quarter end, in up to 27 jurisdictions across Europe. In many instances this results in the processing and reporting of large data volumes to many regulators often proving to be a data challenge, the ARKK Platform can lighten the load with automated data flows, rules and analysis to streamline your process.​
