Statute overview

About this statute

This article says the law sets the responsibilities, organization, and functioning of the Rwanda Revenue Authority (RRA). RRA’s head office is in Kigali, and it may be moved elsewhere in Rwanda if necessary. RRA may also establish branches elsewhere in the country if necessary and approved by an Order of the Prime Minister. RRA has several main responsibilities, including tax administration, granting waivers, public education on tax payment, policy advice, investigation of tax offences, and support for commercial activity. RRA is supervised by the Ministry in charge of Finance, and a performance contract must be concluded between the Ministry and RRA’s Board of Directors. The performance contract must clearly set out the responsibilities of the Board and all RRA structures.
