The global crisis of COVID-19 has impacted our lives to such an extent that almost all our everyday schedules are altered. Apart from disrupting the healthcare and tourism industries, the lockdown mandated to curb the spread of coronavirus has also dented the global economy. Talking of the economy, the massive impact is likely to take years to get back to normal.

Despite the impact on the economy, the tax returns have to be filed on April 30 and there is no extension of this deadline. Of course, the last minute tax filing is tedious and not advisable but if you still have to get it done, then there is a set of tax tech startups to help you with the accounting, invoicing, and other related tasks.

Given that the tax filing deadline in Europe is around the corner here are some tech startups to help you out right now.
