World over taxing the population by governments is tasking especially with the current global technological sophistication.
No-one wants to pay 'Caesar what belongs to Caesar,' hence taxpayers engage in all sorts of tax avoidance gymnastics to a larger extent of engaging in illegal acts of tax evasion.
In my view ,despite stakeholders having reservations on the capacity of the Zambia Revenue Authority to handle sectors like the mining sector which seems sophisticated to tax because of complex production nature, reforms being taken to close tax collection leaks are commendable. This online invoicing, ZRA calling smart invoicing is among those that will make tax validation possible.
ZRA has in addition started implementing mandatory pre-clearance of commercial goods effective May1, 2024 all in an effort to maximise and simplify tax collection. When the goods arrive at the border there would be less time taken to process the clearance, which usually was the case when all processes are being timed at once.
