NL-Africa Tax Newsletter – March 2025

Dear business relation,
This month’s NL-Africa Tax Desk newsletter includes, amongst others, the latest on the 2025/2026 budget measures in South Africa and Rwanda. Next to that, the KPMG member firms in West Africa published the first edition of the West Africa Tax Journal, which summarizes tax developments in Nigeria and Ghana. This report includes an overview of court decisions, regulatory guidance, implementation of new tax laws and amendments effective January 1, 2024, and an update on the implementation of the electronic value added tax (VAT) invoicing system (E-VAT).
If you would like to know more about the matters addressed in this newsletter or have any feedback, you are welcome to contact Sebastiaan Paling (Head of the NL-Africa Tax Desk). Please visit our website for more information on the NL-Africa Tax Newsletter and the services we offer or to download our factsheet.
Best regards,
