The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has announced changes to its online tax filing system by introducing National Identity Card (ID) numbers as a new login option for individual users on the iTax platform.
In an update on Monday, August 4, the taxman announced that the new feature was primarily aimed at simplifying tax compliance as the authority aims to shift towards a more user-friendly and accessible tax system.
Previously, individual taxpayers were required to use their KRA Personal Identification Number (PIN) to access services from the iTax portal.
Despite the update, KRA also clarified that the PIN login remained active and valid, but taxpayers would now have the option to log in using their national ID numbers.
