KRA's Crackdown on Illicit Trade: A Call for Citizen Collaboration
Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has intensified its efforts to combat illicit trade, seizing goods worth a staggering Ksh. 5.766 billion in the past few years. Through increased border patrols, enhanced technology, and strategic interventions, KRA has made significant strides in safeguarding national revenue and protecting the integrity of the Kenyan market.
Key statistics:
Here's a Breakdown of the intercepted illicit goods valued at Ksh. 5.766 billion
• KRA Conducted 28,851 patrols along Kenyan borders.
• The Authority registered 1,215 interventions
• Interventions led to the seizure of OVER 100,000 products
• Interventions involved 15,848 non-compliant taxpayers (businesses and individuals)
However, the battle against illicit trade requires a collective effort. KRA is urging citizens to play an active role in reporting suspicious activities. If you suspect any illegal trade, smuggling, or counterfeit goods, please do not hesitate to contact KRA's reporting channels. Your information is crucial in helping us dismantle illicit networks and ensure a fair and competitive business environment.
Here's how you can help:
- Report suspicious activities: If you witness any unusual movements of goods, especially at border points or remote areas, report it to KRA immediately.
- Be vigilant about counterfeit products: Be cautious when purchasing goods, especially online or from unauthorized sellers. Counterfeit products not only undermine legitimate businesses but also pose safety risks.
- Support legitimate businesses: Choose to buy from established businesses that comply with tax regulations and adhere to ethical practices.
By working together, we can create a safer and more prosperous Kenya for all. Let's stand united against illicit trade and build a stronger nation.
For more information or to report illicit trade, please contact KRA at [KRA's contact information].
