- The Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) has introduced a 16% VAT rate for B2C online purchases made through banks or approved electronic payment platforms, effective 1 September 2025. This reduced rate applies when the supply is subject to the standard VAT rate, the transaction occurs in Mainland Tanzania, the buyer is not VAT-registered, and payment is made through an authorized system. The standard 18% VAT rate remains for other transactions. This measure aims to promote electronic payments and improve tax compliance.
