Tax rates and rules vary by country and state, and authorities differ on how insurance companies or brokers must register.
With so many regulations to keep up with, human error is common.
Solution:

Automated updates to forms also means you have fewer manual tasks to contend with.
Challenge:
If you’re using a combination of new and legacy systems, managing compliance can be risky and problematic for IT. It’s also unlikely to survive future developments in tech requirements or tax legislation.
