On Friday, 4 June 2021, the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) issued a Public Notice providing guidelines on the administration of its TaxPro-Max e-filing platform ("the Platform"). The Platform was introduced to facilitate ease of tax registration, filing, payment, and automated credits of withholding tax and other credits to taxpayers' accounts.

Effective from 7 June 2021, taxpayers are required to submit all naira-denominated tax returns on the Platform. In this regard, taxpayers must generate a Document Identity Number (DIN) from the Platform to pay their tax liabilities. Taxpayers, who wish to make manual tax filings, must contact their local tax office in person or via email ([email protected]) to upload the tax returns and generate a DIN at least two weeks before the filing deadline.
