- The Liberia Revenue Authority (LRA) began a three-day training for senior management to prepare for the implementation of a Value Added Tax (VAT) system.
- The training covers VAT principles, legal frameworks, international best practices, and the transition from the current Goods and Services Tax (GST) to VAT.
- Liberia’s VAT system will start on January 1, 2027, with registration opening in July 2026 and a six-month registration window for businesses and individuals.
- The training is part of a broader roadmap to build a modern, efficient, and transparent tax system, with ongoing outreach and capacity-building activities.
- VAT aims to improve revenue collection, reduce tax evasion, promote fairness, and support national development by modernizing Liberia’s tax system.
