The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) has implemented a new feature to streamline the registration process for new taxpayers in Nigeria. The self-registration module on TaxPro Max now allows taxable individuals to easily register for taxes with FIRS online. This initiative aims to enhance the business environment in Nigeria by simplifying the registration process.
Businesses that have been registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) after September 1, 2023, and have been assigned a Tax Identification Number (TIN) can now complete their registration with FIRS through the TaxPro Max Registration platform. It is important to be aware that FIRS has set a specific registration timeframe for businesses eligible to utilize this new feature. Taxable individuals who were registered with the CAC prior to September 1, 2023, are required to register in person at the appropriate tax office.
