Fatshimetrie, September 3, 2024 edition – The capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Kinshasa, is preparing for an important deadline: the payment of municipal taxes, duties and fees. The General Directorate of Revenue of Kinshasa (DGRK) has set the deadline for September 10, 2024, inviting taxpayers to pay their monthly tax obligations.
In a press release signed by Michée Musaka, head of the Kinshasa tax administration, the appeal is launched to individuals and legal entities subject to various taxes and fees. These include the consumption tax on locally produced goods such as beer, alcohol, tobacco, or the fee on the use of energy resources. Taxpayers are required to comply with these provisions by withdrawing the collection note from the DGRK or by declaring online via the dedicated website.
It is essential that each taxpayer respects this deadline in order to avoid penalties and fines provided for by law in the event of late payment. The DGRK also reminds that quarterly and half-yearly payments are underway for this year 2024, thus inviting the taxpayers concerned to take all necessary measures to comply with them.
It is essential for the proper functioning of public services and the development of the city that everyone contributes as much as they can by fulfilling their tax obligations. Compliance with the deadlines set is a guarantee of good financial management and contributes to the prosperity of Kinshasa. It is therefore a call for the civic responsibility of each taxpayer to actively participate in the growth of the capital.
In conclusion, the payment of municipal taxes and fees in Kinshasa is of crucial importance for the functioning of public services and the development of the city. By complying with the deadlines set by the DGRK, taxpayers participate directly in building a more united and prosperous community.
