As businesses embrace digitalization, they face evolving trends in tax compliance. New business models and government digital initiatives are driving significant changes in the tax landscape.

Authorities are now intervening in business transactions, disrupting established processes and controlling the invoicing flow between suppliers and buyers. This allows them to gather data to prevent tax evasion and automate taxpayer audits, potentially auto-populating tax returns and advancing toward automated tax bills. Moreover, sustainability efforts and climate change regulations are further affecting tax laws.

In this changing landscape, SAP offers solutions to manage complexities effectively. By understanding the evolving tax environment, businesses can use SAP tools to streamline compliance and drive automation, seizing new opportunities.
