20 What is a Tax amnesty? No questions asked Introduce
21 What is a Tax amnesty? The amnesty is like church. It is not just open to sinners looking for forgiveness, but anyone who wants to go in for prayers
22 Introduction The finance Act 2016 introduced a provision in the Tax Procedures Act which will grant tax amnesty to tax payers who earn taxable income from foreign sources. The Amnesty gives the right to tax payers to declare their foreign income in respect of any year ending on or before 31 December The Amnesty is a timely development in light of Kenya having agreed to participate in the Common Reporting Standards (CRS) regime. CRS is a global initiative developed by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development to enhance tax transparency and compliance
23 Where has it worked? Russia (2007) Collected $ 130 million Italy (2001) 80 billion declared Indonesia (2016) - $ 381 billion declared. $ 14.4 billion to be repatriated
24 What does Kenya intend to do? Declare assets Repatriate Assets No tax charged No further questions asked Encourage compliance and tax transparency. Allow commissioner to collect information from unidentified tax payers Create liquidity and generate economic growth
25 Guidelines published on 8 th March 2017 Full disclosure of assets to be done by 31 st December 2017 Disclosure using a prescribed format provided by KRA No further information to be provided Physical repatriation of assets is a must?? Returns to be made on itax A certificate shall be generated
26 Amnesty exceptions Income earned in Kenya Income earned outside Kenya but already declared Individuals under tax audit or investigation by the commissioner
27 Updates from budget speech Extension to file returns and accounts for the year 2016 by 30 th June 2018 Funds declared under amnesty have to be repatriated
28 What we feel should be done Give an option of not repatriating all income or assets Simplify the process of declaration Improve the awareness of the amnesty and its benefits Do not restrict repatriation out of Kenya in the future
29 Conclusion
30 Election year perception 2002 Economic growth slowed in the election year down but picked up in Economic growth of 7% in the election year but slowed down in 2008 to 1.5% due to the post election violence 2012 Economic growth of 4.7% in election year and 5.3% in ???
31 Election period so far FDI - USD 2.3 billion in 2016 from USD 0.51 billion in 2013
32 Other things to look forward to
