Revenue Administration

Revenue administration is a major point of contact between government and the


people. Good revenue administration thus becomes an important feature of good
governance. This fact has made policy makers increasingly mindful of the need to
promote voluntary tax compliance by reducing the costs incurred by taxpayers to comply
with their tax obligation. Promoting voluntary compliance is achieved through a set of
measures that includes: (i) a self-assessment system, (ii) a well-designed compliance
strategy based on risk management, (iii) good taxpayer services to help and educate
taxpayers to meet their obligations, and (iv) simple and harmonized procedures for
collection of different taxes and contributions. In the effort to harmonize procedures and
minimize the need for citizens to respond to multiple agencies, many countries have
integrated their revenue administrations, either by merging tax and customs
administration, or by unifying collection of tax and social security contributions, or by
both.
