PCI Data Security Standard Requirements
PCI DSS Compliance Requirements
Third Party Agents that store, process and/or transmit Visa cardholder account or transaction information are required to be in compliance with PCI DSS and third party agent levels are defined as follows:
1 TPA that stores, processes and/or transmits over 300,000 Visa transactions per year
2 TPA that stores, processes and/or transmits fewer than 300,000 Visa transactions per year
In addition to adhering to the PCI DSS, compliance validation is required for all third party agents.

2

Approved Scanning Vendor
Effective March 1, 2011, Visa will only require submission of an executed Attestation of Compliance (AOC) Form to demonstrate PCI DSS compliance as a Level 1 third party agent. Level 2 third party agents will submit version D of the Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ-D). * Visa will not review the contents of the SAQ-D as issuers and acquirers are responsible for reviewing the accuracy of the SAQ-D.
All materials must be sent securely via PGP encryption to pcirocs@visa.com. If PGP is not available, please contact Visa at pcirocs@visa.com to discuss an alternative submission method. Qualified Security Assessors (QSAs) must submit only fully executed Attestation of Compliance forms, properly signed by the QSA and the third party agent confirming compliance with the PCI DSS. Visa reserves the right to require submission of a third party agent's complete Report on Compliance (ROC).
All third party agents must be PCI compliant prior to beginning services in which they would have access to cardholder data.

Annual Renewal
Third Party Agents that store, process or transmit Visa account must perform the compliance review on an annual basis. The fine for non-compliance starts at 50,000 USD per TPA. For those required to be PCI DSS compliant, if Visa did not receive the renewal documents:
Within 1 - 60 days upon expiry of the compliance documents, the third party agent will be highlighted in Yellow on the Registry.
Within 61 - 90 days upon expiry of the compliance documents, the third party agent will be highlighted in Red on the Registry.
After 90 days, the third party agent will be removed from the Registry.
Please note that Visa reserves the rights to remove any third party agent from the Registry at its own discretion.
