URA Lauds Manufacturers on Digital Tax Stamps Success

The Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) has commended manufacturers for their contribution to the success of the Digital Tax Stamps (DTS) regime.

DTS is implemented by SICPA Uganda under URA and has become one of the key technology platforms supporting Uganda's efforts to improve excise duty compliance.

The system combines secure digital stamps with authentication and traceability technology, allowing authorities to identify legitimate products and monitor goods moving through the market

According to Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) Commissioner General John Musinguzi Rujoki, Uganda’s revenue target now stands at Shs46.6 trillion, hence requiring requiring wider cooperation to achieve.

In an engagement with Uganda’ Manufacturers Association in Kampala on Thursday, the CG, through the Commissioner for Corporate Services, Mr Richard Kariisa, said government has been able to deliver on critical services owing to the compliance of manufacturers through DTS and other systems like EFRIS.
