DESCRIPTIONBy nature of our operations, all INGOs are Income Tax exempt, but given the need to formalise the same, in compliance with Uganda Tax Laws, Alight management has always ensured that this exemption is formally secured and kept on file. During the Tax health check done by KPMG (Alight Tax Advisory Company) in 2019, it was noted that Alight Uganda last secured one in 2012 and management was advised to embark on the same.

KPMG initiated an application that was submitted to URA in 2020 and URA has been dragging the process asking for different items that have been shared until this recent one that came up after we cleared our Tax Liabilities early Feb 2022.
