The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has reinstated the Nil Return filing option after completing system validations aimed at tightening tax compliance ahead of the 2025 income tax return cycle, which ends in June. The move eases concerns among taxpayers following a temporary suspension.
KRA’s Business Strategy, Technology and Enterprise Modernisation Department said on Friday that the Nil Return option will apply to January–December 2025 income tax returns filed after March 31, 2026, when enhanced validation checks embedded in the iTax system come into force.
