KRA to deactivate PINs in five days

Millions will be affected by this new announcement

The Kenya Revenue Authority has announced that they will be deactivating accounts that are not yet registered to the iTax system within the next five days.

According to KRA, half of Kenya's registered taxpayers (2.4 million people) failed to meet the June 30 deadline for filing their returns.

KRA missed their tax collection target of 1.4 trillion shillings from tax payers, having collected 1.36 million shillings in the last financial year.

Tax payers are therefore advised to use the PIN checker on the KRA website in order to verify whether their PINs are active to avoid inaccessibility to critical public services.
