The Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), has indicated that the implementation of the 1.5% Electronic Transfer Levy (E-levy) will be done in phases.
It indicated that the decision to phase the implementation is due to its assessment of the readiness of the charging entities.
In a letter to all charging entities on the issue, the GRA said it has observed that the charging entities were yet to fully integrate with the E-levy Management System hence its decision.
“Following Ghana Revenue Authority’s assessment of the general readiness of some Charging Entities to integrate with the E-levy Management System, the Commissioner-General has decided on a modified phased approach for the implementation of the Levy from 1st of May 2022.”
