Libra what we do best
The obligation to comply with taxation requirements is something that any person in Uganda, whether an individual or non-individual, foreign or indigenous, has to deal with every day, every month and every year. Moreover, the tax laws change frequently, and many individuals and businesses are simply unaware of the myriad of rules that govern deductions, credits and reportable income.
The rules can be very confusing and overwhelming for many people, to the extent that the average taxpayer may make mistakes that can result in the underpayment or over payment of taxes. On the one hand, if a taxpayer underpays taxes, they may be subject to a UGANDA REVENUE AUTHORITY audit, with interest charges and possible penalties, including prosecution. On the other hand, if a taxpayer overpays taxes, they lose money that is rightfully theirs. This is where you need the tax services of a tax expert and LIBRA is your best choice to get it right the first time.
