Event Summary

For the third consecutive year, the Tax Compliance Summit Paris brings together tax, finance, and business leaders to explore the forces shaping the future of compliance.

As organizations continue to prepare for new e-invoicing and digital reporting mandates, a new question is emerging: what comes next? Beyond implementation, businesses must prepare for a world of real-time data exchange, increasingly digital tax administrations, and the growing role of artificial intelligence in finance and compliance.

Through a dynamic mix of keynote presentations, expert panels, and interactive roundtable discussions, attendees will gain practical insights from multinational companies, leading consulting firms, tax authorities, government representatives, academic experts, and Sovos specialists. More than 25 speakers from France, Europe, and beyond are expected to participate in this year's edition.

From ViDA and global e-invoicing developments to AI-powered tax administrations, finance transformation, and the future of digital compliance, the Summit is designed to provide attendees with perspectives that extend beyond today's regulatory requirements and help them anticipate the challenges and opportunities ahead.

With simultaneous interpretation available in both French and English, the Summit offers a truly international environment for discussion, knowledge sharing, and networking.

Attendance is complimentary for qualified tax, finance, and business professionals. Registration is required.
