Why does the Inland Revenue Department conduct Assurance Visits
The Inland Revenue Department as part of its Compliance Program conducts Assurance Visits on tax returns filed by taxpayers.
The objectives of the Assurance visits are to:
- Educate taxpayers
- Improve compliance
- Ascertain sources of information to file VAT return
- Gather intelligence on the taxpayers and
- Verify the accuracy of VAT Returns filed with the department.
Our aim is to ensure the fairness and integrity of our tax system. We do this by making sure that the tax returns and refund applications are prepared properly, and taxpayers are paying the right amount of tax at the right time.
