Make a payment
Due taxes are payable on the dates the respective tax returns are due. PAYE is payable each month, on the 15th of the month following for which the salaries and wages relate. FBT is paid quarterly and the due date is 14 days following the end of a quarter. Tax withheld is supposed to be paid 14 days after it was withheld. VAT is paid monthly by registered vendors and the payment is after 20 days. Though returns for CIT and IIT are made once each year payment must however, be made quarterly in advance. Additional tax for failure to pay tax on the due date is 22% per annum and compounded.
