    Hi community, we appreciate the continued attention this idea is receiving. While our team will continue to review this idea, Xero Tax remains a Partner only product with tools and capabilities that help Xero Partners serve their clients with ease, and we don't have immediate intentions of changing this. Again, we'd like to encourage that if you're not currently connected to a Xero Partner you can find one that can serve your advisor needs through our Advisor Directory. If there is any change planned we will update you of this, here.

    Also to note, our current position on Xero Tax does not relate to our MTD IT program and we'll be providing further information for this separately on this idea.Thanks

    I completely understand the marketing strategy behind Xero’s decision to make Xero Tax available exclusively to partner accountants and bookkeepers. It clearly serves as an incentive for accountancy firms to promote the Xero ecosystem—essentially a trail of breadcrumbs designed to deepen their commitment to your platform.

    However, from my perspective as a small business owner, this approach lacks practical business justification. I see no value in paying an accountancy firm a significant fee—often for what amounts to a 15-minute task—when competing software solutions offer fully integrated annual accounts filing at a fraction of the cost, often much less than the fee charged by those firms.

    I hope Xero will consider offering more flexible access models for small businesses who are capable of managing their own filings, or who prefer to use technology rather than outsource routine compliance tasks.
