The Judiciary Service of Ghana has finalized plans to establish a tax court to deal with the prosecution of tax cases in the country.
A letter signed by the Chief Justice, Kwasi Anin Yeboah, said the tax court will be located at the criminal division of the Court of Appeal within the Supreme Court building.
“The effective date of commencement will be communicated to you in due course,” it stated.
The Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) has advised Taxpayers to meet their tax obligations as prescribed by law or else the GRA will use its powers through the range of compliance improvement measures, including prosecution to sanction Tax defaulters.
Meanwhile, GRA in its prosecution policy, says this will be achieved, not only through tax audits and investigations but also through the prosecution of offenders.
However, Tax cases in the past have been prosecuted in circuit courts.
