Taxpayers are being particularly severely hit by changes to the tax laws and administration procedures that are occurring quickly and inconsistently, making it difficult for them to stay up to date. The incorrect application of cutting-edge digital technologies in the sphere of tax administration is mostly to blame for the difficulties’ significance.

What makes the course “Digital Transformation of Tax Administration” so relevant in the modern world? The base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) initiative has more pronounced similarities with the increasing number of digitally transformed organizations. The goal of tax authority digitalization is to combat fraud and evasion.

The main objectives of all governments are essentially the same: to increase tax revenue and do so more effectively. Certain benchmarks, such as the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) obligations and the Standard Audit File for Taxation (SAF-T), are becoming more widely accepted throughout Europe.

The fact that these regulations are typically created at the national level causes a great deal of variation in how these policies are understood and applied inside organizations. It is crucial to know how to get your organizations ready for these changes and how to be ready to conduct and/or be subject to audits.

Participants will gain insight into digital transformation initiatives in the context of tax administration by taking Training Bee’s Digital Transformation of Tax Administration training course. Participants will learn about the cutting-edge technological solutions that are already in use, such as machine learning, electronic invoicing, data analytics models, online services, and VAT risk management.
