All vehicles used to transport building materials in Nairobi may soon have to be registered under a Sacco or transportation firm to ensure efficient collection of cess.
The move is part of new proposals by Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA), which seek to regulate the transportation of building materials business and foster efficient revenue collection in the capital.
KRA’s Deputy Commissioner at the County Revenue Division, Annastaciah Githuba, said the proposals were arrived at following engagements with stakeholders.
