  The PR machine from GRA is out of touch with reality. I'm all for selling the institution to the public...showing that they are closing up businesses that aren't paying taxes, etc. However, this is a joke. EVERYONE knows that you rarely get a VAT invoice from ANY trader or artisan. Please, don't write the article as though it's a big undercover project. Traders and small businesses flaunt the rules openly and it's the GRA agents who benefit by squeezing the trader for some tips.

  THIS INSTITUTION COULD NOT TAKE APPROPRIATE TAX FROM TAJ INVESTMENT,A FOREIGN ENTITY, WHICH HAS BEEN EVADING TAX BY NOT ISSUING GOODS SUPPLIED TO THEIR CREDIT CLIENTS. CONIVING WITH CEPS OFFICIALS ATTACHED TO THEIR CUSTOM BONDED WAREHOUSES, RE-PARKAGING AND RE-BAGGING SPOILED PRODUCTS, DECLARING THEM AS SPOILT TO EVADE TAX, WHILST UNDER THE WATCHFUL EYES OF STATE OFFICIALS SELL IT TO GHANAIANS. NOW POOR GHANAIANS ARE GOING TO BE BURDEN WITH MORE VAT AND DOUBLE, TRIPLE ETC. TAXATION.

  if tax is 4% in usa(different states and citys have different rates). Then for each sale you add 4%. Then IRS looks to be paid that 4% 4 times per year

  PURCHASERS SHOULD DEMAND RECEIPTS UPON PURCHASES. ICT AND CASH EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE UTILIZED IN ALL AREAS WHERE TRANSACTION IS BEING MADE THERE BY ISSUING AUTHORIZED RECEIPTS. FOR THE COUNTRY TO GET TAX REVENUE GHANA REVENUE AGENCY, CUSTOMS, POLICE, LAW ENFORCEMENT SHOULD BE CORRUPT FREE AS WELL AS ANYONE INVOLVE IN REVENUE COLLECTION NOT POCKETING THEM AND COLLECTING THEIR PAY CHEQUES ON TOP OF THAT. ELSE IT WILL BE LIKE GRECEE, SPAIN, PORTUGAL CYPRUSS WITH UNDERGROUND ECONOMY WITH HUGE DEBTS.

  GRA is an institution which is not necessary. It does not even understand how the state generates its income. This is sad for mother Ghana. Auditor General what is your professional qualification?
