Ex Nihilo and Keeyns – Value added services adding Ex Nihilo’s DAC software to the Keeyns tax management platform

The partnership connects tax governance with the preparation and digital submission of tax reporting DAC obligations, helping tax teams reduce manual work, avoid duplicate data entry and maintain control of recurring compliance processes.

 

Den Bosch, October 21, 2026. Keeyns, the tax management platform for international, multi-entity companies, and Ex Nihilo, a specialist in international tax reporting and transfer pricing, today announced a strategic partnership. The partnership connects Keeyns; tax process management capabilities with Ex Nihilo’s XN-One platform, giving customers a streamlined route from tax governance and preparation to final submission. 


Tax is a cycle of recurring processes. Many of these activities do not directly create value for the business, but they are mandatory. Reporting obligations are a clear example: when reporting is accurate and submitted on time, it often goes unnoticed. When a deadline is missed or information is incomplete, the consequences can include significant penalties and reputational damage. For tax teams, this pressure often falls on a small number of people who are already stretched for time.


Keeyns helps tax teams document, manage and evidence every tax process across all their entities. Smart workflows make clear who does what, and when across the whole tax function. Ex Nihilo developed the XN-One Platform to streamline and automate reporting obligations under DAC4, DAC6, DAC7, DAC8 and DAC9, including submission to the relevant tax authorities. The platform also automates group-wide Transfer Pricing documentation with interactive questionnaires and an intelligent legal- structure management tool enabling organisations to manage multinational entity structures efficiently across jurisdictions.


Together, they help tax teams keep control of their obligations in- house, from the initial preparation through final submission.

 

Others stop at control and visibility. Keeyns goes further: it documents, runs and evidences every tax process across all your entities. Every workflow locks when it’s done and every action carries a full audit trail, so when the auditor knocks, you show exactly what was done, when and by whom. We’re tax experts first, and that’s the edge no one else can match. – Keeyns

 

XN-One platform does not simply process your data: it transforms it into compliant, defensible positions across every dimension of international tax. We sell a solution, not just software – Ex Nihilo

 

With the next wave of reporting deadlines on the horizon, the partnership is available to existing and new customers from today.
