The overwhelming response to my decision to leave @URAuganda has deeply touched me. I am grateful for the opportunity to have been part of the Uganda Revenue Authority and for the invaluable experience and support I have received. My last day will be September 30th, 2024.

This boda-boda on the Kyanja- Kisasi road Number UEU 497T is carrying guys with AK-47's - the Kalashnikov. One guy is hooded and just looks wrong. Is that kind of gun standard security-guard issue? H.E @KagutaMuseveni banned hoods but the traffic officer at Kisasi ignored this..

Hello, @TonyNatif, Let me have a go at explaining ....WITHHOLDING TAX IN UGANDA. HOW IT WORKS When the government needs to collect income tax, they sometimes do it by withholding some of the money from the source of the income instead of from the person who is getting paid.

Good day, Prince @Kaimarah The purchase price of a used vehicle is not used to determine its value. Instead, the @URAuganda motor vehicle value guide on the @URAuganda portal provides customs values for used cars, which are updated monthly. 1. Import Duty: This is usually

How does @URAuganda tax these artists? Do they tax them per ticket as @idringp says or do they allow them some deductions on account of expenses incurred to organize the show etc before they arrive at the taxable income?
