A tax consultant helps taxpayers understand their tax obligations, prepare or review tax returns, identify compliance gaps, manage tax records and respond to tax-related issues. Britax K Consulting provides tax consultancy and advisory support for individuals, businesses and organisations.
A tax review can compare your filed returns, accounting records, invoices, withholding tax information, payments and other supporting documents. This can help identify discrepancies that may require correction or further explanation.
eTIMS forms part of Kenya's electronic tax invoicing environment. Businesses should maintain appropriate electronic invoicing records and ensure that their tax records and declared income are properly supported.
KRA has stated that declared income and expenses are being validated against data sources including TIMS/eTIMS, withholding income tax information and customs records. Businesses should therefore reconcile their accounting records and electronic tax information before filing.
Yes. Britax can assist with reviewing sales, purchases, input VAT, output VAT and relevant electronic invoice information to identify discrepancies before a VAT return is submitted or reviewed.
The first step is to understand what KRA is requesting, review the relevant tax period and reconcile the assessment with your records. Depending on the matter, professional assistance may include reviewing supporting documents, preparing responses and assisting with objection-related processes.
Withholding tax is deducted at source on specified payments. The applicable treatment depends on the nature of the payment, the recipient and whether the tax is final or creditable. Businesses should confirm the applicable treatment before making payments.
PAYE is a method of collecting income tax from employment income. Employers are responsible for calculating and remitting PAYE and meeting the associated filing and employee documentation requirements.
Rental income taxation depends on the nature of the property and applicable tax regime. Residential and commercial rental income can have different filing and tax treatment, so landlords should review their specific circumstances before filing.
Start by reconciling the payment reference, payment evidence, return and KRA ledger. Where a payment has been made but is not reflected correctly, supporting payment documents may be required for a ledger reconciliation or correction.
Penalties can arise from late filing, late payment, failure to deduct or remit certain taxes and other compliance failures. The applicable penalty depends on the tax obligation and the specific circumstances.
Yes. A tax consultant can help review outstanding obligations, returns, payments and supporting records, identify compliance gaps and advise on practical steps toward maintaining an accurate tax position.
