Compliance Targets
In an era of rapid digital transformation, the Netherlands Tax Administration faced the challenge of modernising its taxation system. mintBlue’s innovative distributed ledger technology solution paves the way for a groundbreaking shift towards real-time taxation, benefiting both the administration and taxpayers.
