The Commissioner of the Namibia Revenue Agency (NamRA), Sam Shivute, has called on taxpayers to voluntarily comply with the tax laws as well as customs and excise services for the country to achieve sustainable economic growth.

Speaking during a stakeholder engagement session at Eenhana in the Ohangwena Region, Shivute says NamRA has noted with concern some individuals and several businesses failing and refusing to comply with the tax laws and regulations.

Such practice, he says, is illegal as per the customs and excise act.
