Tax Tech Global Market Report 2025

Tax tech involves utilizing advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and automation to simplify and manage tax processes. It assists businesses in ensuring tax compliance, optimizing tax planning, and minimizing manual errors. Tax tech solutions are commonly employed in corporate finance, accounting, and regulatory reporting.

The primary elements of tax tech are software and services. Tax tech software consists of digital tools that automate, manage, and streamline tax-related activities such as compliance, reporting, filing, and planning for both individuals and businesses. This software covers various tax categories including direct tax, indirect tax, property tax, payroll tax, among others, and is implemented via cloud-based and on-premises platforms. Tax tech solutions utilize a range of technologies such as robotic process automation, big data and analytics, natural language processing, blockchain, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and more, catering to major industry sectors such as pharmaceuticals and healthcare, banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), IT and telecom, retail and e-commerce, oil and gas, manufacturing, government, and others.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the financial sector, particularly in investment strategies and risk management. Heightened tariffs have fueled market volatility, prompting cautious behavior among institutional investors and increasing demand for hedging instruments. Banks and asset managers are facing higher costs associated with cross-border transactions, as tariffs disrupt global supply chains and dampen corporate earnings, key drivers of equity market performance. Insurance companies, meanwhile, are grappling with increased claims risks tied to supply chain disruptions and trade-related business losses. Additionally, reduced consumer spending and weakened export demand are constraining credit growth and investment appetite. The sector must now prioritize diversification, digital transformation, and robust scenario planning to navigate the heightened economic uncertainty and protect profitability.

The tax tech market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $19.44 billion in 2024 to $22.52 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.8%. The growth observed during the historic period can be attributed to the rising demand for automation in tax processes, increased adoption of cloud-based financial solutions, heightened emphasis on regulatory compliance, growing need for real-time tax reporting, expanding globalization of businesses, and accelerated digital transformation within finance departments.

The tax tech market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $39.99 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.4%. The projected growth in the forecast period can be linked to the increasing demand for real-time compliance tools, heightened need for cross-border tax solutions, a surge in global e-invoicing mandates, broader use of big data analytics in tax planning, stronger focus on fraud detection and prevention, and increased investment in fintech infrastructure. Key trends expected in the forecast period include advancements in AI-driven tax analytics, enhanced integration of tax software with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, innovations in blockchain-based tax reporting, incorporation of machine learning for predictive tax insights, and development of cloud-native tax platforms.

The increasing complexity of tax regulations is expected to drive the growth of the tax tech market. This complexity refers to the intricate and ever-changing tax laws, rules, and reporting requirements that differ across jurisdictions, making compliance a significant challenge for businesses. The rise in regulatory complexity is largely due to the globalization of business operations, which necessitates adherence to multiple, and sometimes conflicting, tax laws in different countries. Tax tech solutions assist in managing these complexities by automating compliance processes, allowing businesses to more easily adapt to evolving regulations. These technologies reduce manual workloads by streamlining data entry and reporting, thereby improving accuracy and operational efficiency. For example, in April 2025, the UK Government reported that between 2022 and 2024, a total of 240 tax policy changes were introduced. These changes are projected to cost His Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) approximately $1,129 million (£875 million) and impose around $1,228 million (£913 million) in compliance costs on businesses over the coming years. As a result, the growing complexity of tax regulations is contributing to the expansion of the tax tech market.

Companies in the tax tech market are focusing on the development of advanced tools such as AI-powered anomaly detection systems to increase efficiency, improve accuracy, and reduce manual input in tax auditing processes. These systems use intelligent algorithms to automatically detect discrepancies or irregularities in tax data, helping streamline compliance and minimize errors. For instance, in November 2023, Thomson Reuters, a Canada-based information services provider, introduced new AI and automation features across its tax product suite. These enhancements include automated anomaly detection tools for audits, which utilize AI to identify inconsistencies in financial data, thus increasing audit accuracy and reducing reliance on manual reviews. This functionality is aimed at streamlining data analysis, lowering risk, and ensuring better compliance.

In July 2022, Ryan LLC, a tax services and software provider based in the United States, acquired Paradigm DKD Group LLC, operating as Paradigm Tax Group, for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition was intended to expand Ryan's property tax management capabilities, strengthen its national presence, and support its goal of becoming the top global brand in the tax industry.
