Fee

How long
Email or phone number changes: within 1 working day
Where
Online on iTax (itax.kra.go.ke). For help, KRA Contact Centre, a Tax Service Office or a Huduma Centre
Go to iTax

What you need

  • If KRA needs proof for a return change: P9 form from your employer
  • Bank statements, where relevant
  • Audited books of accounts (businesses)

Steps

  1. To fix a return: log in to iTax, open the Returns tab and choose File Return.
  2. File an amended return for the period with the mistake, with the correct figures.
  3. To update your details: on iTax, open the Registration menu and choose Amend PIN details. Set the mode to Online.
  4. Tick PIN, pick the sections you want to change (phone, email, address, obligations and so on), update them, attach any documents and submit.

Watch out

  • An amendment that raises the tax you owe goes through straight away. One that lowers it must be approved by KRA before it shows.
  • A new obligation (like VAT or PAYE) becomes active only after a KRA officer approves it, so add it early.
  • Companies changing directors must upload the latest CR12 from the Registrar of Companies.

Who can apply

  • Every registered taxpayer, individuals and organisations
