Actually for me, i view income tax as anti-development and discriminate especially the P.A.Y.E.

The most practical would be to re-denominate the currency by knocking off the zero in 1000 so that it becomes 100.


How many will agree for their employers to knock off some zeros from their payslip? SMH.

Why are the prices going up by a straight 16%+? I thought prices would adjust by 5 - 10%. Weren't this suppliers claiming back any VAT from KRA when these commodities were zero rated? How is this factored in within the new tax regime?


Accept, pay and move on. Let us support the gavament!


They need the money to implement the promises!!! commodity prices hazina tyranny of numbers



Irrespective whether you voted for the promises or not...you have to pay.

Developments are not funded from the air....they have to be financed!!smile and who else to finance it...

Where was the opposition when this VAT Act was passed ama walikuwa kortini!!


Tyranny is also in the legislature, na ujue opposition have been told to "Shut up!"

this VAT thing will subside in due course. As usual, when something like this happens, shocks do occur but later sanity will prevail as things stabilizes.

my question, if Uchumi & CornerShop both buy milk from Brookside @40/= to sell @45/=. Uchumi will remit to GoK 16% of 5/= "value added" , CornerShop won't remit .... why would they sell the milk at the same price?

How does or How can the mwananchi make the government account for all taxes collected in the country and ensure they are spent effectively? My fear is that taxation may be one of the easiest ways to steal from citizens if not well accounted for.

Brookside should also charge 16% VAT. Each business in the line will do a VAT analysis showing the input(purchases) versus output(sales). If output exceeds input, the difference is paid to KRA

Everybody who wanted to increase but feared backlash from consumers has taken advantage of the VAT bill to increase their services...that is how inflation is fueled.
