At Deloitte & Touche, we have recognised the need for automation in the field of personal taxation. We have committed our specialist resources from the firm's Taxation and Information Technology divisions in designing and developing the first ever Personal Tax Expert System in Cyprus: WinTax.

WinTax deals with all Cyprus Law tax complications, including expatriate returns. It provides a timesaving and accurate method of completing personal income tax returns and incorporates numerous tax hints during completion.

WinTax was released in February 1996 and is a state-of-the-art software tool which proved invaluable not only to the professional tax planner and accountant, but also to all taxpayers who wanted to "master" their own tax affairs.

WinTax is today's most advanced timesaving method of completing your income tax return creating new opportunities for the individual and the professional advisor. Currently we have more than 200 installations of WinTax with an estimated number of users reaching 1500 - a figure that ranks WinTax amongst the most popular software packages developed in Cyprus.
