Zimra Says There Will Be No Debt Write-Off, Owed $3.9 Billion

The Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (Zimra) has declared that there will be no debt write-off as this could encourage people and businesses not to pay their taxes. The revenue collection authority is owed $3.9 billion by companies and councils. Appearing before the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Finance and Economic Development, Happias Kuzvinzwa, the Zimra commissioner for domestic taxes said:

If we write-off, what message do we give to those who are compliant? Yes, if we force them to pay today they will collapse, but if we come up with a payment plan, they will know that they will pay up.
