Who we are / Info
Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) is the government agency responsible for the assessment, collection, and accounting of public revenues in Tanzania. Established to improve efficiency in tax administration, TRA operates as a semi-autonomous body under the Ministry of Finance. Its core mandate includes administering income tax, value-added tax, customs and excise duties, as well as enforcing compliance with national tax laws. The authority plays a critical role in financing public services and supporting national economic development. TRA has progressively implemented digital systems such as electronic tax filing, online payment platforms, and integrated customs systems to enhance transparency and taxpayer convenience. In addition to revenue collection, it conducts taxpayer education and outreach programs to promote voluntary compliance. Through modernization and alignment with regional and international standards, TRA strengthens Tanzania’s fiscal capacity and investment environment.
