Convert Country-by-Country Reporting data into XML for submission.

Country-by-Country Reporting, often shortened to CbCR or CbC reporting, is a tax reporting requirement for multinational enterprise groups that must provide tax authorities with information about revenue, profit, taxes paid, employees, capital and activities by jurisdiction.

XML Authority helps teams prepare, validate and generate the XML file required for CbCR submission. It does not determine whether your organisation is in scope, so groups should confirm filing obligations with their tax or compliance advisers.

CbCR filing obligations usually apply to multinational enterprise groups that meet the applicable revenue threshold and reporting requirements in the relevant jurisdiction.

XML Authority is designed for teams that already know they need to prepare a Country-by-Country XML report and want a structured way to create, validate and generate the required XML file.

Many tax authorities require Country-by-Country reports to be submitted in XML format, commonly based on the OECD CbCR XML schema or a local country-specific version of that schema.

XML Authority turns CbCR reporting data into schema-driven templates and generates the XML file required for submission.

Yes. XML Authority can support the OECD CbCR XML schema and can also support local country-specific CbCR schema variants where required.

Because XML Authority is schema-driven, it can work from the relevant XSD schema selected for the reporting obligation.

Yes. XML Authority can support the OECD CbCR XML schema, local country-specific schema variants and custom CbCR XSD schemas where required.

Because XML Authority is schema-driven, teams can work with the relevant schema for each reporting obligation. Where a required schema is not already available in the library, Authority Software can add it, or users can import the relevant XSD schema themselves.

Yes. XML Authority can help structure Country-by-Country Reporting data according to the selected CbCR schema, including the reportable information represented in Table 1, Table 2 and Table 3.

The software presents the schema as structured templates, making it easier for teams to prepare and review the required reporting data before generating the XML file.

XML Authority can generate Excel templates and SQL table structures from the selected CbCR schema. These can be populated using Excel formulas, database processes, links to existing data sources or client-side automation.

Once the data is complete, XML Authority validates the report and generates the CbCR XML file.

Yes. XML Authority validates CbCR XML against the selected schema before the final XML file is generated.

It checks XML structure, mandatory fields, data types and required formats so issues can be identified before filing.

Yes. XML Authority includes correction functionality that can help teams prepare corrections or amended reports.

Users can import a previous XML file and use correction templates to support the preparation of updated CbCR XML reports where corrections or resubmissions are required.

Yes. XML Authority can support multiple CbCR reporting jurisdictions through its schema library and custom XSD import capability.

This allows teams to manage different CbCR schema versions and jurisdiction-specific requirements from one platform.

Yes. XML Authority is designed for compliance, tax, finance, reporting and IT teams that need to generate XML reports without manually working inside XML files or schemas.

The software turns complex CbCR schemas into structured templates, helping non-technical users prepare, validate and generate XML reports with less reliance on developers.
