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.

EMCS paper fallback 13–15 November as OmaVero shuts down

OmaVero is down 13 November 16:30 to 15 November 18:00; EMCS and its APIs go down with it, so file excise movements on paper and draft e-ADs up to seven days ahead.

Excise movements that travel under duty suspension over the weekend of 14–15 November 2026 must go on paperVero. OmaVero is out of use for a system update from Friday 13 November 2026 at 16.30 until Sunday 15 November 2026 at 18.00Vero, and during the outage no one can log in to OmaVero or handle tax matters in the serviceVero. Because the EMCS cannot operate while OmaVero is downVero, consignors and consignees use the fallback procedure for that period and file the notification on paperVero.

The shutdown timetable has moved. The page previously announced a weekend outage from Saturday 16 May at 6.30 until Monday 18 May at 8.00; those May dates no longer apply and the November dates replace themVero. Anyone working from a saved copy of the old notice or a calendar entry made in the spring should update it: the paper procedure now applies around 13–15 November, not in May.

The API shutdown runs on a slightly narrower window than OmaVero itself. The EMCS API interfaces close at midnight at the start of 14 NovemberVero and reopen no later than 17.00 on 15 November, possibly earlierVero. Integrators should therefore queue submissions around that window and not treat a rejected call on Friday night or Saturday as a data error: the interfaces are closed, and the movement must be documented on paper under the fallback insteadVero.

The fallback covers the full movement lifecycle. The page points to three standing instructions: the fallback for receiving products, the fallback for dispatching products, and the fallback for a change of destination addressed to the consignor. Movements that can be fully specified in advance can be eased by drafting the e-AD accompanying document in OmaVero's EMCS ahead of time: the draft can be drawn up no more than seven days before the actual transport beginsVero, provided all movement details are availableVero. A consignment already drafted before the Friday shutdown can therefore travel on its papers through the outage.

The scope is the harmonised excise traffic the EMCS supervises. The EMCS (Excise Movement and Control System) is the electronic exchange system between EU countries used to declare and supervise movements of EU-harmonised excise goods, namely alcohol, alcoholic beverages, tobacco and liquid energy products. The paragraph describing the system was moved within the page in this update; its content is unchanged.

Legal basis: Verohallinto's EMCS page on the OmaVero outage of 13–15 November 2026, the EMCS API closure of 14–15 November 2026, and the standing paper-fallback instructions for dispatch, receipt and change of destination.

If you move excise goods on 13-15 November 2026, prepare the e-AD up to seven days ahead or file the movement on paper under the fallback.
