The Namibia Revenue Agency (NamRA) says it will leave no stone unturned in implementing its Tax Law Enforcement Strategy to ensure that what is owed to the state is paid.

Soon after its establishment, NamRA continued its drive to optimise Namibia's tax revenue collection.

This has led to some reforms at NamRA offices countrywide to ensure compliance by companies and individuals.

Previously, regional offices such as the one at Oshakati were reported to have not been meeting revenue collection targets owing to non-compliance by taxpayers.

Statistics shared with President Hage Geingob by NamRA's executive management indicate a general improvement as the Oshakati office contributed N$1,5 billion to overall revenue collection.

The tax refund scams are another matter that NamRA Commissioner Sam Shivute says will be pursued relentlessly to bring the culprits to book.

Shivute was speaking to nbc News following the presentation of NamRA's strategic objectives and achievements during a courtesy call at State House.
