I added tagging support to the new form field code I wrote for the 
pdfmanagement. So this here is correctly tagged (assuming a current 
latex/texsystem):

\RequirePackage{pdfmanagement-testphase}
\DeclareDocumentMetadata {uncompress}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tagpdf}
\tagpdfsetup{activate, interwordspace,paratagging}
\usepackage{l3pdffield-testphase}
\begin{document}
some text
\ExplSyntaxOn
\pdffield_checkbox:n{name=a}
\ExplSyntaxOff
more text

\end{document}

But this won't help much if existing PDF's should be tagged.
