Bus/Financial / Steuerrecht
German term or phrase: Belegpflicht
Es geht hier um die HGB Belegpflicht.

"Ein wesentlicher Schritt zur Erfüllung der Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung ist die Erfüllung der Belegpflicht."

I can't seem to find the right term for it.

Your help would be appreciated
