- The European Commission’s Annual Report on Taxation 2023 highlights five digital megatrends that are worth monitoring.
- Digitalisation has simplified tax management, reduced costs, and made it easier for tax teams to keep track of deadlines and day-to-day reporting.
- Digital preparation of taxes is 27% faster than traditional methods, and time to comply has fallen 30% since 2004.
