The Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) has announced that its offices across the country will be open on Saturday, December 20, 2025, in a move aimed at easing access to tax services and supporting compliance.
According to the authority, services will be offered from 2:30am to 11:00am, providing taxpayers with additional time outside regular working days to meet their obligations and seek assistance. The decision comes as part of broader efforts to improve service delivery and reduce congestion during peak periods.
TRA said the extended opening reflects its focus on enhancing taxpayer convenience while strengthening voluntary compliance, which remains central to domestic revenue mobilisation.
Taxpayers requiring further clarification have been advised to use the authority’s toll-free numbers 0800 780 078 and 0800 750 075, or contact TRA through its official email address, [huduma@tra.go.tz](mailto:huduma@tra.go.tz). More information is also available on the authority’s website.
The initiative underscores the role of administrative flexibility in supporting compliance and sustaining revenue performance, particularly as the government continues to rely on domestic resources to finance public services and development programmes.
