The monthly domestic Value-Added-Tax (VAT) collections by the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) have increased by up to Sh10 billion, signalling the gains from a crackdown in hard-to-tax segments, including farmers and small businesses.
KRA Director-General Humphrey Wattanga disclosed that monthly domestic VAT collections have risen to between Sh28 billion and Sh30 billion, up from Sh20 billion, lifted by a requirement that all supply transactions be accompanied by electronic tax invoices generated through the Electronic Tax Invoices (eTIMS).
