KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., Oct. 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vertex, Inc.

The partnership enables a seamless solution that allows businesses to ensure continuous indirect tax compliance and bring efficiencies to their invoicing lifecycle, all within a single cloud platform.

E-invoicing has quickly become a necessity for businesses trading in multiple jurisdictions with the rise of real-time and near-real time digital tax reporting requirements. Following Latin America, the rapid emergence of new and proposed e-invoicing mandates across Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Middle East that further push for digitization of indirect tax is driving the expansion of real and near-real time global compliance requirements worldwide.

The joint offering enables tax, finance and IT departments direct access to data for CTC, unlocks e-invoice clearance, real-time reporting and Peppol access for electronic B2B and B2G compliant document and data exchange.

"The tax technology landscape is continuously evolving, and today’s global enterprises are feeling an even greater sense of urgency to remain up to date with legislative changes and reduce compliance risk. We understand the need for an e-invoicing solution that could both increase efficiency and reduce compliance risk,” said Vertex CEO David DeStefano. "Partnering with Pagero, who deliver the best-of-breed in e-invoicing, together we are introducing the ability to access real-time data in one single portal on a global scale.”
