iTax locks out many ahead of tax filing deadline

Kenyans form long queues to fill tax returns at the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) South Rift Office in Nakuru on June 30, 2025. 

A section of taxpayers on Monday struggled to log into the Kenya Revenue Authority's (KRA) online tax filing platform, iTax, as thousands rushed to submit their mandatory annual income tax returns ahead of the June 30 deadline to avoid penalties.

Some taxpayers were greeted by broken links and error messages when attempting to access the portal, leaving many frustrated and fearing they would miss the statutory deadline.
