New Release: 29th April 2025

The following new functionality will be released on the 29th April.

Chrome Extension - generate.TAX VAT Submitter Helper - Until today, for a return to be fully submitted, each box from a VAT return generated by generate.TAX had to be manually copied one by one as the numbers were shifted into the tax authorities' portal.

This is no longer necessary! A new submission helper has been created to help you copy all the numbers with one click and easily paste these numbers into the corresponding boxes in the tax authorities' VAT return with another click of a button.

Submitted returns will now have this new feature:
