The Katsina State Internal Revenue Service (KSIRS) has introduced a digital billing system for ease of taxation.

The billing system code, pay-by-yourself or (Biya da Kanka), is designed to encourage tax compliance and management.

KSIRS’ spokesman Sada Shu’aibu said this in an interview on Thursday in Katsina.

He said the measure was imperative towards centralising tax payment and administration to enhance revenue generation.

According to him, the system will enable taxpayers to register with the service, to know their tax status and also pay directly to the government’s coffers.

“With the new system, taxpayers can register, calculate, and pay their dues at their convenience through their mobile phones or laptops. The aim is to block leakages in revenue generation to enable the government to execute projects that have direct impact on the people,” he said.

He, therefore, urged taxpayers to download the app for ease of transactions, as all revenue-generating agencies had been synchronised on the platform.
