If we can register 10m taxpayers, we can discuss tax cuts - URA A broader tax base, URA says, would allow more people to contribute to government revenue and ease the burden on a few individual taxpayers links.monitor.co.ug/Hiz_FE #MonitorUpdates

I thank EY Uganda for organising and inviting all key stakeholders for their Inaugural Tax Retreat 2026. At the retreat, I reiterated our ambition to grow Uganda’s tax-to-GDP ratio to at least 20% by the year 2030. Achieving this goal will require collective action, stronger partnerships and a shared commitment from all stakeholders to build a sustainable and resilient revenue base that supports Uganda’s development. I wish all the participants an open and fruitful dialogue over the next 3 days of the retreat.

📍 Soroti The Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) met landlords, property owners and other real estate stakeholders in Soroti District for a tax education session on the Electronic Fiscal Receipting and Invoicing Solution (EFRIS), as the growing property market creates a need for reliable income records. Officials said notebooks and informal records become harder to manage as rental portfolios grow, and that EFRIS offers one digital system to track tenant payments and keep accurate, retrievable recorfs. Participants were taken through EFRIS registration, issuance of e-receipts and e-invoices and the tax obligations on rental income and property transactions. #DevelopingUgandaTogether #FFeBanno

📍 FortPortal EFRIS compliance was at the centre of URA’s Tax Education engagement this morning at Nyaika Hotel in Fort Portal, where wholesalers, retailers, hardware operators, shop owners and depot operators were sensitised on the use of EFRIS, proper record-keeping, timely tax filing and payment. Led by Benjamin Senfuka, the team guided taxpayers through EFRIS registration, service configuration and stocking in items, emphasising the importance of fiscalising business transactions. “With EFRIS, URA and the taxpayer will have the same records,” Senfuka said, encouraging businesses to embrace the system to promote transparency, maintain accurate records and support correct tax declarations. The engagement aims to strengthen voluntary compliance and equip businesses with practical knowledge to fulfil their tax obligations. #DevelopingUgandaTogether #FFeBanno

Team Lead, Benjamin Senfuka took students through the basics of taxation, covering tax types, filing tax returns, URA’s role as a government revenue collection agent and current initiatives aimed at improving tax compliance. The session provided an opportunity for students to appreciate the connection between paying taxes and financing public services, while encouraging them to become informed and responsible citizens who can influence a culture of voluntary tax compliance. Meanwhile, John Kiyaga, URA’s Manager Service Management in Domestic Taxes, handed over tax education literature to the school’s Headmaster to support continued learning and strengthen tax awareness within the school community.
