Government fees prop up revenues as KRA falls Sh83bn short
A Huduma Centre in Nairobi CBD. A sharp rise in government service charges helped lift non-tax revenues in the quarter to September 2025 to Sh136 billion.
Income earned from fees and charges on government services rose by 28 percent in the three months to September, helping shore up State revenues as tax collections dwindled and the taxman failed to meet its targets for the quarter.
Appropriations in Aid (A-I-A), the money collected by State ministries, departments and agencies from the public for services they provide, increased by Sh29.5 billion to Sh136 billion in the first quarter of the 2025/26 financial year, up from Sh106.6 billion last year.
