RRA extends profit tax payment deadline

Despite the fact that Rwanda Revenue Authority (RRA)’s annual profit tax payment deadline is 30th June, the authority was forced to extend the closing date. Over 3,500 taxpayers rushed to clear profit tax and by 11pm, the eight tills in the banking halls were still receiving payments. Céléstin Bumbakare, the RRA Commissioner for Domestic Taxes explained that there was need to extend the deadline to yesterday, in order to attend to tax payers who did not afford to clear on 30th yet were still in the queue.
