Uganda moots digitizing entire tax system to boost collections

URA has previously indicated that increased declarations among digital tax stamps-rated goods had boosted tax collection, rising by 30 percent by June 2023 from shillings 740.79 billion to shillings 963.38 billion. 

“Everybody pays their due tax and as a result of that we shall make Ugandans pay less tax per head but at the end of the day we collect more revenue than now having fewer Ugandans paying and others don’t pay,” Ggoobi said.
