Title How does withholding income tax regime work?
Description

The person making the payment deducts tax prior to paying the amount due. The tax withheld/deducted is then remitted to the KRA. The payer is required to generate a withholding tax certificate on iTax which is automatically sent to the payee once the payer remits the withholding tax to KRA. Withholding tax deducted should be remitted to KRA by the 20th day of the month following the month in which the tax was deducted.


Withholding tax is claimable by the payee when filing their annual tax returns and is not an additional tax
