The key activity in the process of KRA return filing is to complete the KRA iTax payment. The KRA iTax payment process is designed to be efficient, effective and more importantly very convenient for remitting the domestic tax payments.
In order to make the iTax payment easier for taxpayers, the authority has built the payment gateway in collaboration with commercial banks and the KRA. Initially, 27 commercial banks were partnered to facilitate the iTax payment and today, it supports most of the popular banks. Taxpayers can make KRA iTax payment electronically or through cash.
