The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) has said that taxpayers can now obtain their Tax Clearance Certificate in a single click through its flagship taxpro max solution.
The solution which is a tax administration module introduced
by the apex tax authority in June 2021 is a one-stop-shop for taxpayer
registration, tax returns filing, tax payment, tax clearance certificate
requesting, among other functionalities.
A statement signed by Mr. Johannes Wojuola, Special
Assistant to the Executive Chairman, FIRS (Media & Communication),
yesterday, said the generation of Tax Clearance Certificates, which used to be
issued within a period of two weeks would now be available on a single click by
the taxpayer.
This innovation is coming on the heels of wide-scale
technological reforms that the Service has embarked on in its bid to achieve
hundred percent automation of its tax administration functions.
Commenting on this development, the Executive Chairman of
the FIRS, Mr. Muhammad Nami, explained that this functionality was in line with
the objectives of the Service to make the lives of taxpayers easier and ensure
the ease of doing business in the country.
“One of our objectives as a Service is to build a
Customer-Centric institution,” he stated.
“That means an institution that has the customer at the
heart of its innovations and solutions. It is for this reason that we have
tuned the operations of our TaxPro Max solution to be able to deliver Tax
Clearance Certificates in the shortest possible time to taxpayers.
“At the click of a button, a taxpayer will get their Tax
Clearance Certificates, as long as they have no outstanding liabilities.
“This would impact in no small measure on the Ease of Doing
Business in Nigeria,” Nami stated.
Explaining further the FIRS boss stated that the taxpayer
could only generate their Tax Clearance Certificates on the TaxPro Max platform
when they did not owe any liabilities among other conditions set out for use of
the platform.
