As tax authorities across Europe continue to accelerate digital reporting and audit initiatives, the Standard Audit File for Tax (SAF-T) has moved from a technical reporting obligation to a strategic compliance priority for many organizations.
While SAF-T is often perceived as a standardized framework, the reality on the ground is far more complex. Each country applies its own schemas, validation rules, reporting frequencies, and enforcement models, making SAF-T compliance a challenging task—especially for companies operating across multiple jurisdictions.
Why SAF-T Requires a Country-Specific Approach
Across Europe, SAF-T obligations are expanding rapidly, with tax authorities increasingly relying on structured audit files to assess data quality, transaction consistency, and internal controls. Countries such as Romania, Poland, Bulgaria, Denmark, and Portugal have introduced SAF-T requirements with varying scopes, timelines, and technical expectations—often accompanied by increased audit activity and stricter validation checks.
This divergence means that a single, generic SAF-T setup is rarely sufficient. Organizations must instead adopt a flexible, scalable approach that accounts for local requirements while maintaining global consistency across systems and data models.
What This Webinar Will Cover
This session is designed to provide a clear, practical overview of the European SAF-T landscape, focusing on both regulatory and operational realities. Rather than staying at a high level, the webinar will explore real-life challenges companies face when preparing, validating, and submitting SAF-T files from SAP and non-SAP ERP environments.
Key topics include:
- The evolution of SAF-T within Europe’s broader digital tax reporting strategy
- Regulatory scope and reporting obligations across key SAF-T jurisdictions
- Technical requirements, data models, and file structures
- Implementation timelines and enforcement approaches
- Common validation issues and how to reduce submission failures
- Best practices for strengthening audit readiness and data quality
- Cross-market insights drawn from multiple SAF-T implementations
The session will conclude with a live Q&A, allowing participants to raise country-specific or technical questions directly with the experts.
Who Should Attend?
This webinar is particularly relevant for:
- Finance and Tax leaders responsible for regulatory compliance and audit readiness
- IT teams supporting ERP systems, reporting frameworks, and data extraction processes
- Compliance and audit professionals dealing with SAF-T submissions and tax authority interactions
Whether you are already live with SAF-T in one or more countries or preparing for upcoming obligations, this webinar will help you assess your current readiness and identify practical next steps.
