A ROC must be completed by a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) after a PCI DSS audit. It is then submitted to the merchant’s acquirer who, after accepting the ROC, sends it to the payment brand for verification.

What is a Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ)?

Merchants are required to complete a Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) for PCI compliance. Which one you need, is determined by the way your business handles payment card data.
