Corporate entities and individuals are expected to file their tax returns on the last Friday of April, 2018.
This was made known by Mr Eric Sebastian Awuni, the Principal Tax Officer of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), at the Stanbic Trade Series held in Accra.
Mr Awuni said under the new tax regime, every income earning Ghanaian was supposed to file his or her tax returns.
“The enforcement of the amended income tax law 2016 (Act 907), requires the filing of tax returns to be done by private individuals and not just corporate entities and I encourage all Ghanaians to take this seriously and file their tax returns so we can achieve a Ghana beyond Aid,” he said.
The income tax law, Mr Awuni said, was amended in 2016 to revise and consolidate the many scattered tax laws and amendments into one document.
