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.

From 1 November 2026Lovdata, the origin conditions in Vedlegg I to the EFTA-MERCOSUR free trade agreementLovdata apply as forskrift in Norwegian customs proceduresLovdata. For trade under that agreement, whether a product counts as an originating product is decided under those Vedlegg I conditionsLovdata. Tolletaten adopted the change on 15 October 2026 and it was published on 19 October 2026.

The change sits in the list in vareførselsforskriften § 5-11-1 first paragraphLovdata, which gives the origin conditions of each listed agreement the force of forskriftLovdata. The EFTA-MERCOSUR Vedlegg I enters that list as new nr. 24Lovdata. The entries previously listed as nr. 24 to 38 then read as nr. 25 to 39, with no change to their substanceLovdata. Readers who cite § 5-11-1 numbers should use the new numbering for positions taken on or after the November date.

The surrounding mechanics are unchanged. Bilateral agricultural agreements concluded under the free trade agreements can still carry deviating rules, and where they do those rules prevail over the first-paragraph list. At export, origin is documented under the agreement concerned: varesertifikat EUR.1 or EUR-MED attested by the customs authorities, origin declaration on the invoice or another commercial document identifying exporter and product, supplier declarations for full cumulation cases, and origin declarations on customs declarations CN22 or CN23 for small consignments by post. Exporters that handle originating and non-originating materials together may apply for relief from physical-separation requirements, including bookkeeping separation per production unit, where the agreement opens for it and the conditions on processing, storage burden and accounting control are met.

In practice, exporters, importers and customs brokers handling EFTA-MERCOSUR trade assess originating status against Vedlegg I from 1 NovemberLovdata and use the agreement's proof form on the export leg. Standing files that cite § 5-11-1 nr. 24 to 38 should be checked against the new numbering before the change takes effect.

The rule stands in vareførselsforskriften § 5-11-1Lovdata as amended by FOR-2026-10-15-2076Lovdata, laid down under vareførselsloven § 5-11Lovdata.

Assess EFTA-MERCOSUR originating status against Vedlegg I for movements on or after 1 November 2026 and update § 5-11-1 number references.
