It seems Uganda Revenue Authority is copying a seed from National Water and Sewerage Corporation (NWSC). This is because after NWSC closed all its cash offices across the country for electronic payments, Uganda Revenue Authority is also phasing out its cash offices.

Electronic payments are a new phenomenon in Uganda. In fact it was launched in East Africa’s third economy last financial year.

James Odong, one of the commissioners of Uganda Revenue Authority says that their customers no longer need to spend time in line waiting to clear their taxes when electronic payments system is in place.

Odong has told informers and journalists in Kampala that the tax body is implementing modernization initiatives to improve customer services through E payment.
