(Supplement to Public Notices No. 16 of 2014, No. 1 of 2015 and No.10 of 2015)
The Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA) hereby advises valued clients that the Government has extended the period within which applications for tax amnesty may be accepted by a further three months from 1st July 2015 to 30th September 2015. This means that ZIMRA will continue accepting applications for tax amnesty up to 30th September 2015.
The tax amnesty is still in respect of any non-compliance which occurred during the period beginning 1st February 2009 to 30th September 2014 (the amnesty period). Taxpayers will still be required to submit applications for tax amnesty on Form No. TAO1 (obtainable from the ZIMRA website: www.zimra.co.zw). The completed applications forms should be submitted to any ZIMRA office.
Issues already covered in completed or on-going audits or investigations and other enforcement activities by ZIMRA are still not covered by this amnesty. The payment period still ends on 31st December 2015, except for cases covered by the legislation. The 5% discount is still applicable for early payment of amounts due.
The Commissioner General would like to urge all valued clients to take full advantage of this opportunity to regularise their tax affairs voluntarily as there will be no further extension.
Paying taxes and duties on time and in full builds and dignifies Zimbabwe!
