Worry-Free KRA Tax Submissions for Startups and SMEs
The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) maintains strict oversight of corporate taxation, and iTax compliance represents one of the most critical operational areas for any business. Failing to file returns on time or submitting inaccurate declarations leads to severe financial penalties, audit risks, and potential disruptions to your operations. Managing VAT, PAYE, Withholding Tax, and Annual Corporate Tax requires both technical tax knowledge and regular portal coordination.
Numeriq Solutions provides comprehensive, outsourced KRA tax filing and compliance management. Led by registered CPAs, our tax advisory division manages your entire tax calendar, prepares precise computations, and submits iTax returns directly on behalf of your company. We work proactively to ensure you claim all eligible tax reliefs, structure your transactions tax-efficiently, and maintain a spotless compliance record with the KRA.

How Our Process Works

Tax Computation: Our tax accountants reconcile the documents and calculate the exact VAT, PAYE, and Withholding Tax liabilities.
Review & Approval: We present the tax computations and draft returns for your review. We discuss tax efficiency options and answer any queries.

Remittance Tracking: You disburse the payment using the generated E-Slip, and we track the remittance to confirm it reflects in your iTax ledger.
Frequently Asked Questions
Late filing of monthly VAT returns attracts a penalty of KES 10,000 or 5% of the tax due, whichever is higher. Additionally, late payment of the tax due incurs a one-time penalty of 5% of the unpaid tax plus late-payment interest of 1% per month until the amount is fully paid.
A Tax Compliance Certificate is issued by the KRA to confirm that a taxpayer is compliant with all filing and payment obligations. To obtain one, your company must have filed all past returns correctly and paid all liabilities. Applications are submitted via iTax, and certificates are typically approved within 5 business days if there are no pending issues in your ledger.
Withholding Tax is tax deducted at source by a buyer when making payments to specific service providers, consultants, or contractors. The withholding rate varies (typically 3% to 5% for local professional services). The withheld amount must be filed and remitted to the KRA by the 20th day of the following month.
We warrant that all returns prepared by Numeriq are filed before their respective statutory deadlines. If a filing deadline is missed due to an administrative oversight on our part, Numeriq will cover the resulting penalty and any associated KRA interest charges in full.
