This was made known by Rev. Ammishaddai Owusu-Amoah, Commissioner of GRA.
He stated that such a collaboration that was being embarked upon by the GRA and the National Identification Authority (NIA) will help the authorities to share important data and identify eligible taxpayers in the informal sector.
He said taxpayers will not spend time in acquiring TINs as they will use the Ghana Card Identity Number for tax purposes. The GRA in collaboration with the National Identification Authority and other relevant stakeholders is working to ensure that with effect from 1 April 2021, the Ghana card Unique Identification Number of the National Identification Authority replaces the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), he stated.
