Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is eTIMS and is my business required to use it?
eTIMS (Electronic Tax Invoice Management System) is KRA's mandatory system for generating and transmitting tax invoices electronically. As of 2024, all VAT-registered businesses must use eTIMS. Non-VAT registered businesses above certain thresholds are also phased in. We handle full onboarding and integration.
What happens if KRA audits my business?
Don't respond to KRA alone. We step in immediately — reviewing the audit scope, preparing all required documentation, attending meetings with KRA on your behalf and negotiating any assessments. If necessary, we file formal objections and pursue appeals at the Tax Appeals Tribunal.
Can you help with outstanding KRA penalties and back taxes?
Yes. We handle voluntary disclosure applications, negotiate penalty waivers and set up payment plans with KRA where full payment is not immediately possible. Early resolution is always less costly than prolonged dispute.
Do you handle personal income tax for individuals?
Yes. We assist individuals with rental income tax, consultancy income, capital gains tax on property sales, and annual income tax returns — ensuring you only pay what you legally owe.
How do you keep up with Kenya's frequent tax law changes?
Our team actively monitors KRA public notices, Finance Acts, Legal Notices and ICPAK tax updates. We immediately assess the impact of any change on our clients and proactively communicate required adjustments to your tax position.
