Marosa and Wolters Kluwer have reached an agreement by which the Galician company specialized in tax technology will be integrated into the Corporate Performance & ESG division of Wolters Kluwer. The 120 people who are part of the Marosa team will join the multinational, which will thus strengthen its structure in Galicia and Spain thanks to the acquisition.
Marosa will maintain the closeness and quality of service that have characterized it since its foundation, now with the support and scale of an international group. Customers will continue to use the products and services they use today, which will feature continued investment and innovation.
The operation occurs at a time of strong growth for the scale-up Marosa, which in just three years has more than doubled its income. Marosa has been advised by A&O Shearman, with a team led by Pablo Méndez and Íñigo del Val.
VATify will be integrated into the Wolters Kluwer portfolio
With the acquisition, Wolters Kluwer reinforces its position as a leader in the tax technology sector, adding to its offer the VAT compliance and electronic invoicing capabilities of Marosa and its VATify product, two areas whose demand is growing strongly at the pace of regulatory changes that drive electronic invoicing and the growing need for tax technology in large companies.
VATify will be integrated into the Corporate Tax portfolio alongside CCH SureTax (indirect tax determination and compliance) and CCH Axcess (direct tax platform), within Wolters Kluwer’s strategy to build a global indirect tax platform that encompasses VAT determination, compliance, electronic invoicing and digital reporting, supported by artificial intelligence capabilities.
The operation also reinforces the role of Vigo as a technological hub of Galicia: the city will continue to be the headquarters of a company that becomes part of a leading international group in professional information, software and services.
“Wolters Kluwer is a company based in Europe with which we share values and a common vision of the future. It will be the right environment for our business to reach the largest multinationals with the help of its global structure, complementary solutions and its great human team,” says Pedro Pestana da Silva, CEO of Marosa.
“It is an excellent time for Marosa to join Wolters Kluwer, since the market is in full expansion and its solutions will be integrated into our product portfolio, strengthening the services we provide to our clients and accelerating their growth capacity,” says María Montenegro, CEO of the Corporate Performance and ESG division of Wolters Kluwer.
Tax digitalization accelerates demand for specialized solutions
Tax digitalization is no longer optional. The advance of electronic invoices and obligations such as the Immediate Supply of Information (SII) have pushed companies to rely on software to submit their tax data in real time.

Countries such as France, Germany, Italy or Belgium have already made the use of electronic invoices mandatory, while some of these countries require the sending of each e-invoice to the tax authority. Spain will follow this path progressively. Following the approval of the royal decree that develops the Create and Grow Law, companies with a turnover of more than 8 million euros will likely be the first to adapt to the new regulations, with October 2027 as the scheduled date for the start of this obligation. In this area, Marosa together with Wolters Kluwer organize on October 22 in Madrid the event “Marosa Summit 2026: the future of electronic invoicing” aimed at large companies operating in Spain to share their vision and technological solutions.
This places thousands of large companies and their supply chains in an adaptation process that will require significant technological and organizational investments. For Marosa, whose solutions respond to these types of needs, a cycle is opening in which tax compliance and automation tools come to the fore.
The opportunity goes beyond the electronic invoice. Taxation is evolving from a model based on periodic declarations to one of continuous supervision, in which regulatory compliance increasingly depends on technology and data quality.
Added to this is the European push for ViDA (VAT in the Digital Age), which is moving towards the almost immediate transmission of tax information and a continuous compliance model in cross-border operations. A context especially aligned with Marosa’s value proposition, focused on helping multinational companies manage their tax obligations in multiple jurisdictions in an integrated and permanent way.
