Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) is a government revenue agency based in Tanzania, with responsibilities for tax collection and customs administration. It has pursued digital transformation to streamline revenue processes, including the Integrated Domestic Revenue Administration System (IDRAS). In June 2026, TRA launched the Zanzibar Single Window System to simplify customs clearance and improve trade facilitation, reducing the administrative burden on importers, exporters and clearing agents. In 2026 it introduced governance and compliance initiatives such as an Ethics Platform to promote voluntary tax compliance and a pre-tax clearance procedure for petrol and diesel to ensure taxes are collected before products reach the market. TRA also collaborates across borders, exemplified by its partnership with the Uganda Revenue Authority to curb tax evasion and smuggling. The agency, based in Tanzania, serves a broad set of stakeholders and has received recognition in public-sector awards for its governance.
