Citizens’ Perceptions and Attitudes Towards Taxation, Tax Levels And Tax Officials

 

Do tax authorities have a right to make people pay taxes? What preferences do people have about low or high tax rates? How easy is it for taxpayers to find out about the taxes and fees they are supposed to pay to the government? How do Tanzanian taxpayers perceive the integrity of tax officials?

 

This brief, which explores public sentiments about taxation, tax levels, and tax officials, is the first in a series of three REPOA briefs that uncover citizens’ attitudes towards taxes and tax enforcement in Tanzania.

Do I Have To Pay Tax? Citizens’ Awareness Of Their Tax Obligations In Tanzanian

 

Are Tanzanians aware that they are required to pay Value Added Tax (VAT) and income tax? Does this awareness vary by citizens’ education and place of residence? Does access to tax information influence citizens’ awareness of their obligation to pay these taxes?

 

This briefing paper seeks to answer these important questions based on data from Round 5 of the Afrobarometer survey conducted in 2012.
