VIVACELL FAILS TO PAY TAXES




 Wednesday, 11 April 2012 14:35

The ministry of finance has complained that the mobile operator
Vivacell failed to pay the exercise duty taxes introduced by the new
Taxation Act.

Vivacell CEO refused to answer CRN whether his company was exempted
from paying taxes.

Instead, he rushed to the Undersecretary at the Telecommunication
Ministry, Juma Stephen, and told him that he was asked about things
concerning bilateral agreements between Vivacell and the minister and
he would not want to talk about it.

Undersecretary Juma Stephen explained to CRN that the issue of
Vivacell came up when the national ministry of finance complained that
the company was not paying its exercise duty taxes.

He said both sides met and Vivacell was told to pay the newly
introduced exercise duty taxes like the other operators.

Mr Stephen added that the exercise duty tax was new.

He said before mobile operators were asked to pay only value added taxes.
