BDO UK has launched BDO Axis
Its new VAT determination, reporting and e-invoicing reconciliation platform for businesses with global compliance obligations, powered by VATCalc
BDO Axis is more than a VAT compliance platform.
Launched by BDO UK, it combines VATCalc’s legislative-coded global VAT technology with BDO UK’s indirect tax, compliance and technology expertise.
BDO UK can coordinate with their global BDO member firms to help multinational businesses manage VAT technology, advisory, reporting and digital compliance obligations across different countries.
A single VAT application supporting global compliance
BDO Axis combines determination, returns, e-invoicing reconciliation and digital reporting obligations in one seamless application.
Built on VATCalc’s legislative-coded architecture, the platform provides:
- Full legislative audit trails linking VAT determinations and invoicing obligations directly to national VAT law and e-invoicing mandates
- Automated preparation of VAT returns, EC Sales Lists, Intrastat, SAF-T, control statements and other country reporting obligations in over 65 countries
- End-to-end reconciliation between ERP transactions, VAT returns, e-invoices and e-reporting submissions to reduce audit risks and data gaps
- Integration with existing e-invoicing providers or suggested partners
Unlike traditional VAT compliance tools focused only on VAT returns, BDO Axis manages the complete VAT process, from invoice through to reporting and digital compliance.
BDO UK VAT and technology support
What differentiates BDO Axis is the combination of technology with BDO UK’s indirect tax and technology expertise. Where support is required outside the UK, BDO UK can work with relevant BDO member firms, subject to the appropriate local arrangements.
Clients can access:
- Global and local VAT advisory support coordinated by BDO UK
- Managed VAT return filings where required
- VAT technology implementation and onboarding support
- Tailored analytics, controls and VAT data checks designed around client processes and industry risks, such as partial exemption
- BDO UK specialists advising on data analytics using BDO Axis tools, supplemented by platforms including Alteryx and client-preferred technologies
- Simulated tax authority digital audits, data interrogations and governance reviews reflecting relevant local audit practices
- Ongoing support for evolving e-invoicing, digital reporting and ViDA requirements
This allows BDO Axis, as a BDO UK platform, to go beyond standard compliance software. It combines VAT technology designed to support global compliance with BDO UK tax expertise and, where necessary, coordinated input from relevant BDO member firms.
