The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has announced a change to the deadline for individual taxpayers to file their annual income tax returns. Previously set for June 30, the new deadline is now April 30, effective from January 1, 2027.

The KRA made the announcement through its official KRA Care account on October 29, 2026. The update applies to all individual taxpayers and requires them to submit their returns by the new date. The change aims to align with international tax filing standards and improve compliance.

This adjustment follows previous reforms aimed at streamlining tax processes in Kenya. The KRA has been working to modernize its systems and enhance taxpayer services. The new deadline is part of broader efforts to improve transparency and efficiency in tax administration.
