@ntvuganda First, we have bad roads, and yet the drivers don't have respect nor patience while on the road, we lack road discipline in simple terms

Four people have died in a road accident that occurred this evening on the Masindi–Hoima Road in Masindi Town. The accident involved a motor vehicle and two motorcycles. Eyewitnesses say the speeding driver lost control of the vehicle and knocked down three people. Two of the victims were traveling on motorcycles, while the third was a pedestrian. The driver of the vehicle also died instantly. #NTVNews

@jssenkandwa @KagutaMuseveni There lots fraudulent schemes in this country

A group of dealers came to you Mr. President @KagutaMuseveni and sold you the idea of digital number plates, however there is a genuine outcry over the rampant theft of these plates and police can’t track them.

@PeterMpanga3 @jssenkandwa @KagutaMuseveni @MoWT_Uganda Never expect help from parliament of Uganda, they are also there to eat money

@jssenkandwa @KagutaMuseveni Maybe the question should be directed at the “group of dealers.” The @MoWT_Uganda , the Prime Minister and Speaker Among know the “group”. They should summoned to face the appropriate parliamentary committee and explain this problem… But that is a fanciful hope.

#URAEnforcementAlert Entebbe🌎 A major drug bust took place at Entebbe International Airport in the wee hours of yesterday when a team of URA customs officers, working with the Special Forces Command (SFC) and the Anti-Narcotic Police Unit intercepted a large quantity of cocaine being smuggled into the country. The suspect, a man believed to be Nigerian by descent, arrived on a Qatar Airways flight from Doha at approximately 00:10 hours. During routine baggage screening, officers noticed suspicious images on the scanner. Further inspection of the scanner images showed one passenger’s bag with tins that seemed to hold something unusual. After a thorough physical check by the Aviation Police Narcotics Team, the contents were confirmed to be carefully concealed cocaine. The suspect was immediately arrested and taken into police custody. He is currently being held at the Airport Police Station. This seizure was aided by intelligence information provided to the customs officers by the Uganda Police Narcotics Team, which helped flag the suspect as a potential drug trafficker. Authorities are now working to establish more details about the origins of the narcotics and any connections to organized crime. The seized cocaine is classified as prohibited items under both international law and Uganda's national legislation, including sections 4(1) and 2(9) of the Narcotic Drugs and psychotropic substances (Control) Act of 2016; The 1988 UN Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances also outlaws such activities globally. Drug smuggling at the airport is not a new issue. In March 2023, authorities seized 9.8 kilograms of cocaine worth about Shs 4 billion, linked to another Nigerian national. Later that year, the Kampala Metropolitan Police destroyed over 56 kilograms, worth Shs. 3 billion of narcotics confiscated from travelers at the airport, between 2020 and 2023. The public is reminded that narcotics trafficking remains a serious crime with severe legal consequences, and authorities continue to intensify their efforts to prevent drug smuggling into Uganda. #Customs101

@URAuganda I here in Uganda only a few people are allowed to export

𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐬 𝟏𝟎𝟏 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐬: Goods for export do not pay taxes in Uganda but only pay taxes in the partner state of export under the Single Customs Window program. #Customs101 #IBuildUganda

JUST IN: Edrisa Musuuza, also known as Eddy Kenzo has been appointed as a presidential advisor on creatives by President Museveni. #NTVNews

@StatisticsUg How come URA taxes people who are paid 500,000/= and below and why are they not taxing these enumerators

That was a typo Elias. Enumerators are paid 50,000 shillings per day for 10 days totaling to 500,000 Ugandan shillings for 10 days which is not taxable because it is an allowance. #UgandaCensus2024

@nze_jo @joshuabyamazima @URAuganda They should set their targets and track it at once on entry points and manufacturers point who then should distribute it down the supply chain

@TimothyDams @joshuabyamazima @URAuganda By its nature, VAT is supposed to be charged every time there's value added to an item along the value chain. URA would've to know the future value to be added to this product till it reaches the final consumer, and charge this to the manufacturer. Clearly this isn't possible

Frame 1: I purchased an oner at Capital Shoppers for the price of 2,500 including VAT. Frame 2: The local vendor near the supermarket, equipped with a fridge, also sells the same oner for 2,500. Like how ? @URAuganda

@nze_jo @joshuabyamazima @URAuganda Why remit the 18% VAT yet it was already remitted by the manufacturer? This is what I don't understand, the manufacturer remits pushes it down the supply chain, distributor remits another 18 to Ura, wholesaler still remits again to URA, retailers still remit another 18%.

@joshuabyamazima @URAuganda Note that the supermarket doesn't remit all this 381/- to URA. They offset the VAT they incurred when buying and remit just a portion of this. Assuming a purchase price of 2000/- for both, the supermarket's profit after taxes comes to ~426/- vs 500/- for vendor. Not so alarming

@DoreenNyanjura Ooh!!!

In defense of LGBTQ rights, Archbishop Desmond Tutu had this to say; "I would not worship a God who is homophobic, I would refuse to go to a homophobic heaven. No, I would say, 'Sorry, I would much rather go to the other place." If Desmond Tutu a celebrated and respected human rights activist and noble peace prize winner went to hell for defending gays, our religious leaders that threaten LGBTQ activists with hell may also end up in hell for turning a blind eye to the gross human rights violations. Moral of this tweet; We are all sinners.

@URAuganda @ninsiima_emilly @URAuganda Set your targets give them to the manufacturer or importer and track Ur vat from their instead of harassing the citizens down the chain of at all it's levied one time on a particular product. Apparently u levy VAT at every step of the supply chain which is unfair

Hello @ninsiima_emilly Please permit us to share with you and your followers afew open secrets on Value Added Tax (VAT). 1. VAT is a consumption tax, that is ultimately paid by the consumer. 2. VAT has a component of input and out put, as the various players along the VAT chain do business. So the importer that you mention in your tweet, pays VAT at importation that is his input VAT. When he sells to the wholesalers, he earns output VAT which offsets the input VAT. The wholesaler and retailer also do the same. The consumer is the one who inccurs the VAT because he cant offset against anything. EFRIS is here to help URA ensure that there is transactional visibility across the entire VAT chain. We have had instances where the final consumer pays the VAT to anyone of the people along the value chain who have instead eaten the VAT instead of remitting it to URA. EFRIS is here to stop the illegal eating of VAT. Mumazima ga yesu, EFRIS is not the economic enemy, it is the VAT eater. Emilly tuli fenna? #FfeBanno

@URAuganda @PTL_Ug @bbossa @EstherOdora @RytterM @SMChelangat @URA_CG Some people have bn forcefully registered for VAT. But truth b told, taxes are very high and unrealistic just in the name of maintaining the extravagant life style of govt

Hello @PTL_Ug Please note that for Uganda, the tax head VAT has been here since 1997. It’s not new. It has however been abused in the past with some VAT registered businesses collecting it from consumers but not remitting it to URA. EFRIS is a system that was introduced to combat non-remittance of VAT because it guarantees visibility of transactions that attract VAT. It is this exposure that is the ire of perhaps entities that were hitherto not remitting the VAT they were collecting from consumers. EFRIS is a game changer. #FfeBanno

Dear valued customers, we would like to remind you that you have already been paying VAT every time you have been dining or shopping from VAT registered businesses. We would also like to inform you that there is nothing like an “18% EFRIS VAT” as indicated in this poster. We would like to emphasize that EFRIS is simply a system that is enabling URA to effectively monitor the VAT that you have already been paying. The system is here to enable businesses and the Taxman to have the same level of visibility to guarantee the integrity of VAT declarations. Previously, some VAT registered businesses (not necessarily the one in the poster) have been collecting the VAT paid by clients but not remitting it to URA fully as expected. EFRIS is here to put an end to this under/misdeclaration. VAT is an indirect tax that is paid by consumers and collected by VAT registered businesses on behalf of government. Therefore, to introduce this purported “18% EFRIS VAT’ when clients have already been paying VAT is irregular. #FfeBanno

@PatrickLukooya @URAuganda @PTL_Ug @bbossa @EstherOdora @RytterM @SMChelangat @URA_CG Well stated

@URAuganda @PTL_Ug @bbossa @EstherOdora @RytterM @SMChelangat @URA_CG The problem is not efris , but multiple taxes, you want the 18%at factory then 18% at factory store, 18%at the shop where products are delivered for sell or customer with retail shops again asked for efris machine, we end up paying 18×3 or 18×4 and beyond.

@S_Kahumuza Amen

May my whole life prove that God is good 💙
