Do you file tax returns in Nigeria?

Filing and representation are handled by a locally registered or authorised adviser unless this page states otherwise. We prepare the records and workpapers they rely on.

Which accounting software do you work in?

QuickBooks Online, Xero, MYOB and Tally. Ask us if you use something else.

How do we get started?

Contact us with your country, platform and what you need. We reply with a written scope and quote before any work starts.

Can you work with our accountant?

Yes. We are set up to work alongside your accountant, auditor or registered agent.

Nigeria Tax & Compliance Framework

Federal taxes in Nigeria are administered by the federal tax authority (the Federal Inland Revenue Service, reconstituted as the Nigeria Revenue Service under the 2025 tax reforms), while state revenue authorities administer personal income tax (PAYE) for residents of their states. Company registration and annual returns are handled by the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC).

Common obligations for businesses include company income tax, value added tax (VAT), withholding tax, PAYE and pension contributions. Nigeria reformed its tax laws in 2025, with changes taking effect from 2026, so rates, thresholds and filing rules should be confirmed locally before you rely on them.

PakalaTax supports your bookkeeping, payroll records and management reporting so that your tax adviser, auditor and company secretary have clean information to work from. Tax rules change; confirm current requirements with a locally authorised adviser.
