KRA TAX ON YOUTHS USING INTERNET

The government of Kenya has decided to follow the tax system of Uganda in taxing those people who are using the internet to earn their living since that's the only way to money for sustainability since there is a high rate of unemployment.

“A digital market place supply shall be deemed to have been made in Kenya where the recipient of the supply is in Kenya, the payment proxy including credit card information and bank account details of the recipient of the digital supplies are in Kenya; or the residence proxy including the billing or home address or access proxy including Internet Proxy address, mobile country code of SIM card of the recipient is in Kenya,” says KRA in the proposals.

The proposals are in the public participation stage and most people are encouraged to go and ‘shoot it down’.
