The new server certificate will be implemented on Monday, March 11, 2024, at around 5:00 a.m. on the side of the Tax Administration system. Taxpayers will be able to start downloading the public key of the new certificate even before its replacement on February 20, 2024, through the FINA certificate search engine (http://rdc.fina.hr/certificate-search/) or on the website of the Tax Administration.
Before the server certificate of the production system expires, the server certificate of the fiscalization test system cistest.apis-it.hr will be renewed on February 19, 2024, at around 3:00 p.m., when the upcoming change can be tested. A new fiscalization test system certificate will be issued by Fina Demo CA 2020.
Further to the changes related to the TLS encryption protocol made on September 1, 2023 in the test environment of the fiscalization service, and for the purpose of providing a higher level of information security during data exchange, it is announced to fiscalization payers and producers/maintainers of software solutions for fiscalization that during the implementation of the new server certificate cis.porezna-uprava.hr on Monday, March 11, 2024 around 5:00 a.m. in the production environment of the fiscalization service will introduce support for the TLS v1.3 encryption protocol on the CIS side of the Tax Administration, and from then on in the production environment service to support TLS v1.1, v1.2 and v1.3 encryption protocols. If user solutions are connected to the fiscalization service using the predefined largest available cryptographic algorithm, this will require adaptation in part of the older user solutions in such a way that a certain cryptographic algorithm is forced into them when connecting to the CIS of the Tax Administration.
