Tax Services
End-to-end TRA and KRA compliance: VAT, PAYE, WHT, corporate tax, annual returns, and transfer pricing documentation. We represent you during queries and assessments so you never face a regulator alone.
Overview
Tax is one unavoidable facet of every business. To mitigate unnecessary losses related to tax and tax penalties, tax advice is very key in every step of business set up and operation. When not well addressed, tax issues can pose significant risks to businesses. The tax and compliance environment are highly complex and an area that is governed by a web of growing and constantly changing legislation.
As GSA AFRICA we have strengthened our tax team in order to assist our clients with tax matters especially in the current environment where the Government has intensified tax compliance checks and tax collection measures. We also consider the importance of tax planning and services to companies to ensure the right and correct application of Tax laws. As a team that managed tax portfolios under both the Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) and the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) for over a decade — first as GSA Consulting and now as GSA Africa — we bring institutional knowledge of both regulatory environments that generic firms cannot replicate.
