1. To establish modern revenue assessment and collection system; and
provide customers with equitable, efficient and quality service,
2. To cause taxpayers voluntarily discharge their tax obligations,
3. To enforce tax and customs laws by preventing and controlling contraband
as well as tax Fraud and evasion,
4. To collect timely and effectively tax revenues generated by the
economy;
5. To provide the necessary support to regions with a view to harmonizing
federal and regional tax administration systems.
As part of a tool to meet its objectives, the Authority believes that
information to educate and enlighten its public must be disseminated
through website and other media. Many citizens in various parts of
the country unconsciously aided and abetted the smugglers. Therefore
providing abettors and potential smugglers with education is necessary
to infuse in their hearts and minds the necessity for proper respect
of the Authority’s law, and to let them stand against contraband.
Such an effort is presently underway; as a result information regarding
the Authority’s laws and regulations are partly made available
on this website. This website has also contained the Authority’s
background information, vision and mission statements, news and contact
person addresses.
The information posted on our website has a considerable effect on
the importers, exporters, taxpayers and other publics of the Authority.
Therefore as a member of our public, you are advised to look into
the information posted on this website or get yourself familiar with
the laws of the Authority. The prior awareness of the tax and customs
law or procedures helps to keep you from making mistakes especially
unintentionally or in other words, it helps you to comply with tax
and customs laws. What makes us most pleased is to see always our
customers complying with the law. Compliant customers are always prudent
and get themselves familiar with the laws and acts accordingly or
deliver themselves from the serious penalties for failure to obey
the law. This in turn enables the Authority to discharge its duty
of collecting revenue effectively, to be successful in rendering service
to its customer, and protecting the society from the possible danger
that arises from smuggling.
This website, in addition to providing significant information, allows
you to communicate with the Authority when you are unhappy with the
Authority's service delivery or when you seek to give us a feedback
which gives us an opportunity to overhaul our service delivery and
to rectify it or to bring about such changes that would make it more
efficient.
Finally let me express my hope that visitors/users will find the information
posted on this website as a useful guide and reference to enhance
their understanding of the newly established tax and customs administration
system and use it as a vital tool in bridging the gap with the Authority
Thank you for visiting.
Melaku Fenta, Director General
