The digital revolution across Europe creates huge opportunities for businesses to utilize digital services and automation to modify their business models and traditional processes in order to improve operational efficiency and increase revenue. Enhanced operational efficiency, end-to-end business process optimization, and cost and human error reduction are a few major benefits of the digital transformation in tax systems. Therefore, the demand for tax software is increasing in Europe.

Tax software quickly ascertains a client’s overall financial situation and suggests insurance or investment products, or other services such as auditing, bookkeeping or even comprehensive financial plans, that may be needed. The additional revenue that can be generated from this approach can be substantial in many cases. Also, the tax preparation process has become fast and efficient as vast information is now available in digital format. It helps accountants prepare tax to import their client data from personal finance software directly on their tax returns with a single click as a substitute of entering all those numbers manually. Also, electronic signatures have been entered with the client’s permission, which often eliminates the need for clients to be physically present in the accountant’s office. Furthermore, mobile apps are now available for taxpayers to e-file their tax effortlessly. Thus, digitization in the tax paying system is expected to propel the growth of the Europe tax software market during the coming years.

The western part of Europe is known for its better standards of living, with people exhibiting higher income levels. Such enhancement in areas/sectors provides ample growth opportunities to the businesses to further nurture their business through product development, geographic expansion, etc. The SMEs are benefitted with the adoption and implementation of cloud accounting in their organizational structures as it helps them lower the cost burden incurred by subscription, software license gain, and maintenance.

The government bodies in Europe are realizing that all businesses need assistance during the COVID-19 outbreak. Like 2008 financial crisis, the outbreak crisis is impacting the business operations of both public and private companies. In countries, such as the UK, the government released the stay-at-home order in the first quarter of 2020. Thus, the trend of remote working has emerged. Remote working compelled the businesses to adopt advanced systems to have access to financial records. Several companies are now shifting from office-based financial management process to tax preparation & online accounting software to provide users a secure and better access to financial report remotely. The demand for advanced accounting software and professional services is increasing to organize business processes and make tax preparation less arduous. This aspect would gradually impact the adoption of tax software in Europe during the forecast period.
