What sources does Taxxa search?

Taxxa searches a continuously updated collection of more than one million pages from tax authorities, government publications, legislation and case law across the European jurisdictions it covers. Every response cites the underlying material, so a professional can inspect the rule, its jurisdiction and whether it is current before relying on the result.

Can Taxxa work with a team’s own documents?

Yes. Research can combine the public knowledge base with a team’s own PDF, DOCX, CSV and TXT files in one workspace. That makes it possible to compare a client document with the relevant guidance, trace a conclusion to its source and prepare a draft without losing the evidence that supports it.

Who is Taxxa built for?

Accountants, auditors, tax advisors, payroll specialists, bookkeepers and advisory teams working across European jurisdictions. Shared workspaces keep research available to colleagues, and citations make review easier.

Where is customer data stored, and is it used to train models?

Customer data stays in the European Union and is never used to train language models.

Does Taxxa replace professional judgement?

No. Taxxa is a research and drafting workspace. It helps professionals reach an informed starting point faster; the professional still reviews the evidence and makes the final decision. It does not file returns, post bookkeeping entries or give legal advice.

Industry: Washing and (dry-)cleaning of textile and fur products

The 2026–2028 agreement for laundries and dry cleaners introduces a contractual obligation to advance sickness, care and parental benefits from 1 March 2027. The new provision applies to new cases after that date. Better existing arrangements at individual businesses must not be reduced because of the agreement. The March 2027 commencement excludes § 11’s third paragraph, which prohibits unequal treatment of employees in advances of sickness benefits.Lovdata

The obligation covers employees with at least six months of continuous service. Advances are limited to the amount reimbursed by NAV and, unless a better local arrangement applies, to four months in a calendar year, including the employer period for sickness benefits. The employee must continue to meet the statutory benefit conditions, and the employer must give at least one month’s notice before advances stop. For a sick note issued by a doctor outside the EEA, the advance duty starts only once the employer has NAV’s confirmation that the sick note entitles it to reimbursement.Lovdata

The obligation ends if NAV rejects the benefit application, employment ends, or the employee fails to provide the information or cooperation needed for reimbursement. Payroll teams should review eligibility, reimbursement limits and notice routines before applying the new provision. The relevant contractual rule is § 11 of the laundry and dry-cleaning agreement.Lovdata

Prepare payroll routines for the March 2027 advance obligation, retaining better local arrangements and checking the stated conditions.
