The Kenya Revenue Authority has announced that it will be implementing a new tax regime, known as Turnover Tax (TOT), which will affect businesses in Kenya. The TOT is a type of income tax that will be levied on businesses based on their turnover, rather than their profits. This change is expected to have significant implications for businesses in Kenya.

The Kenya Revenue Authority has been working to modernize its tax system and make it more efficient. As part of this effort, the TOT was introduced as a way to simplify the tax regime and reduce compliance costs for businesses. The TOT will be levied on businesses with an annual turnover of KES 5 million or more.

The introduction of the TOT is expected to have significant implications for businesses in Kenya. Businesses that are currently exempt from income tax may no longer be exempt, and those that are already paying income tax may see their tax liability increase. The TOT will also require businesses to keep accurate records of their turnover, which could lead to increased administrative costs.

Businesses in Kenya are required to take action to comply with the new Turnover Tax (TOT) regulations. This includes registering for a Tax Compliance Certificate and keeping accurate records of their turnover. The Kenya Revenue Authority has announced that it will be providing guidance and support to businesses as they implement the TOT.
