At Kintsugi, we continuously improve our platform to enhance your tax compliance experience. Our latest updates to the registration process provide clearer guidance, better usability, and streamlined workflows. Here’s what’s new.
1. Enhanced Nexus Exposure and VDA Registration
What’s New?
Kintsugi now makes it easier for businesses to explore a Voluntary Disclosure Agreement (VDA) when registering. If your business qualifies, you’ll see a clear option when clicking the Register button.
New "Explore VDA" Option
When registering, a pop-up window will now display two options:
✅ Standard Registration – Proceed with the regular registration process.
✅ Explore VDA – Let Kintsugi assist you in assessing your eligibility for a VDA.
Why Choose "Explore VDA"?
This feature helps businesses:
✔ Avoid unexpected tax liabilities, audits, and penalties.
✔ Ensure compliance by tracking nexus thresholds in real time.
What Happens Next?
After selecting "Explore VDA," a confirmation message will appear.
You’ll receive a notification or message with further details soon.
Benefit
This update ensures that your business is eligible for VDA registration and can easily identify and proceed with the appropriate tax registration type without confusion.
2. Clear Differentiation Between Standard and VDA Registration
What’s New?
We have added an info icon next to the registration type.
This icon helps users distinguish between Standard Tax Registration and VDA Registration at a glance.
Benefit
The addition of this icon provides clarity, helping you to quickly recognize which tax registration type you are selecting within Kintsugi.
3. Improved Registration Input Options
What’s New?
A comment input box has been introduced during registration.
This field is optional, allowing you to add comments if needed regarding their tax registration.
The registration email is now pre-selected if you have an associated virtual group.
You can select the checkbox if you do not have login credentials for a particular tax jurisdiction.
If the box is unchecked, the system re-evaluates the available tax registrations.
Benefit
These enhancements reduce friction during tax registration by providing default selections, optional comments, and clearer instructions, ensuring compliance without confusion.
4. Improved Messaging for No Available Registrations
What’s New?
Previously, when no registrations were available, the system displayed a vague message.
We have now updated the text and added a subtitle to make the messaging more user-friendly and informative.
Benefit
This update eliminates confusion and ensures that you can easily understand why no registrations are available, guiding you on your next tax compliance steps within Kintsugi.
Conclusion
These improvements make tax registration in Kintsugi more intuitive, informative, and efficient. Whether you're registering for a standard account or a VDA, the clearer UI and better messaging help streamline the compliance process.
