Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the problem of low-level tax compliance in Tanzania. It proceeds from the premise that high-level taxpayer compliance is essential to the success of the tax system. The author argues that tax enforcement alone will not of itself lead to high level tax compliance, and posits that there is a strong link between good governance and compliance. He argues further that taxpayers' attitudes towards taxation and towards government in general are formed in a social context, including factors such as perceived fairness of the tax structure, the ability of government to deliver services to its people and the legitimacy of government.

Book excerpt: Tax Administration and Policy Reforms: Tanzania In the field of tax administration reforms, the lasting fiscal crisis of Tanzania motivated a series of tax reforms in the 1990s, particularly putting huge efforts into increasing the tax base and making tax collection more efficient (Fjeldstad 2003). [...] At the beginning of the 1990s, the Tanzanian government consecutively took actions on tax reforms: firstly, focusing on modernisation of the tax system; and then expanding the managerial and technical capacity within the TRA for more efficient and effective tax administration (IMF 2003). [...] Third, unlike the TRA, the URA lost ground on its sovereign offer of higher salaries to staff in the mid-2000s, in the face of government's strong intervention in the operation and recruitment processes of the URA (von Soest 2008). [...] The tax to GDP ratio in Tanzania increased after the establishment of the TRA, but this ratio soon stagnated; likewise, Uganda achieved a steady increase in tax collection for several years after the establishment of the URA, but Uganda also showed stagnation in the tax to GDP ratio in the late 1990s. [...] Figure 3: QVC in Tanzania and Uganda, 2011/13 Source: Afrobarometer Round 5 and Round 6 Tax Reform Factors Differentiating QVC A missing link in identifying the associational relation between administrative tax reforms and QVC is to elaborate how differently the government's tax reforms affected the density and direction of QVC in the state-building process in Tanzania and Uganda.

Book excerpt: The 2005 Tanzania poverty and social impact analysis (PSIA) on local government tax reform was designed to examine the intended and unintended consequences on poverty reduction and growth in Tanzania of the tax reforms implemented in June 2003 and 2004. The main elements of the reform were the abolition of the flat rate development levy in 2003 along with nuisance taxes, and the abolition of business license fees for enterprises below a certain size and capping of those fees for larger enterprises in 2004. This PSIA had two principal aims: (a) to assess the distribution of the tax burden across different social and income groups and small businesses before and after the reforms; and (b) to inform other initiatives directed at fiscal policy reform in the context of Tanzania's decentralization.

This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Selected Issues paper examines productivity, growth, structural reforms, and macroeconomic policies in Tanzania. Tanzania experienced macroeconomic stabilization and significant structural change over the last three decades, including two major waves of reforms, first in the mid-1980s and more importantly in the mid-1990s. Both reform waves were followed by total factor productivity (TFP) and growth spurts. Over the recent period, TFP growth decreased, which coincided with a less strong reform drive. It is suggested that a TFP-led growth model is superior and that vigorous reforms are needed to foster further structural transformation of the economy and sustain high productivity gains and investment.

This book was released on 1997-03-01 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on previous FAD work in the tax administration field, this paper defines broad criteria for diagnosing the problems in a country’s tax administration and formulating an appropriate reform strategy. To be effective, this strategy should be based on the size of the tax gap and the country’s particular circumstances. This paper discusses some guiding principles which have provided the basis for successful reforms, including: reducing the tax system’s complexity, encouraging taxpayers’ voluntary compliance, differentiating the treatment of taxpayers by their revenue potential, and ensuring the reform’s effective management. Also discussed are specific bottlenecks that hinder the effectiveness of the tax administration’s operations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews economic developments in Tanzania during 1996–98. Both traditional and nontraditional exports increased sharply in 1995/96 and 1996/97 as agricultural and manufacturing production responded to the reforms; however, exports fell again in 1997/98, owing initially to drought and subsequently the floods associated with the El Nino phenomenon. The external position strengthened during the last two years as the deficit on the current account of the balance of payments (excluding transfers) declined and international reserves rebounded to the equivalent of three months of imports of goods and nonfactor services.
