Malawi is imposing VAT on certain banking transactions. However, stakeholders remain confused about precisely how authorities will implement the new VAT rules.
Following an amendment to the VAT Act, authorities are charging VAT of 16.5% on specified transactions.
Initial reports suggested that VAT could apply to ATM transactions, transfers to other bank accounts, cash transfers to mobile wallets, among certain other transactions.
