New Reporting Obligations: The Finance Bill 2026 mandates Virtual Asset Service Providers to submit annual user and transaction reports to the Kenya Revenue Authority, which will increase compliance costs and impact the transparency of digital transactions.
Digital Payment Taxes: The proposal introduces a 5% withholding tax on local card transactions and a 16% VAT on certain fintech services, potentially raising operating costs for payment firms and businesses reliant on digital transactions.
International Information Sharing: The bill allows Kenya to exchange virtual asset transaction information with foreign tax authorities, aiming to strengthen tax enforcement and align with international standards, reflecting a global trend towards stricter regulation of digital asset flows.
Expanded Tax Dispute Powers: The bill grants the Kenya Revenue Authority broader enforcement authority, allowing funds to be frozen or redirected during tax disputes, which could affect businesses' cash flow and operational flexibility.
