What is iXBRL and accounts tagging?
iXBRL is inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language
iXBRL, or Inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language, is an open standard that enables a single document to provide both human-readable and structured, machine-readable data. It was developed to communicate information between businesses and other users of financial information, such as regulators, investors, analysts etc.
iXBRL can be viewed on standard internet browsers and embeds 鈥渢ags鈥� that give meaning to the figures and statements in a format that can be understood by a computer. It does not change what is being reported, simply how it is reported.
Irish Revenue and UK HMRC compliance
iXBRL is well proven, with many financial and regulatory reporting regimes mandating the use of the format globally.
In Ireland and the UK, iXBRL filing is mandatory. Irish Revenue and UK HMRC requires businesses to submit their financial statements in iXBRL format as part of their Corporation Tax return.
