Kenya’s Finance Act 2022, which amends the country’s national VAT Act, has updated the VAT registration rules for non-resident suppliers of digital services.
The changes which have been effective since July 1, 2022 are:
- Non-resident businesses must charge Kenyan VAT on B2B digital service transactions – therefore widening the scope from just supplies made to Kenyan consumers (B2C).
- No threshold for VAT registration – therefore meaning that digital services suppliers are required to register for VAT in Kenya irrespective of the local turnover/sales amounts.
