In the last 2-3 years, We have appointed 100s of judges to the Court of Appeal, High Court, Environment and Land Court and Employment and Labour Court and things are getting worse and worse...(and for once I'm not even complaining about JurisPESA problem and judges giving orders in the wee hours of mornings on a weekend). At this rate we may as well close our courts. Nothing is really working in our courts...no hearings...no judgments...no rulings...just adjournments....adjournment....and mentions....workshops....retreats....benchmarking etc...Surely, why are judges and magistrates refusing to work? What is the problem with our courts? Numbers and work load are no longer the issue or excuses. The judiciary seem to be facing very big problems...the judiciary is facing a systemic and existential leadership problems at all levels. The Court of Appeal is in standstill. Backlog of 5 years is the norm in Nairobi, yet CJ posts 50% of the Court's judges to towns/villages where no appeals have ever been filed....Applications heard in May have ruling dates for November(7 months for a ruling of 10 pages!!!) Similarly, the Commercial Court in Nairobi no longer listens to matters. Matters heard in May have ruling dates for November/December. The problem is everywhere. Surely, things can't go on like this. Yet Nobody is speaking for Kenyans when their judiciary stopped working ages ago. The new leadership in @LawSocietyofKe seems to be preoccupied with things we dont know. Obviously they are not interested in matters judiciary. The Registrars and the CJ probably aren't even aware of what is happening in our courts. So, what can Kenyans do to address the downing of tools by judges. Why isn't the hundreds of judges appointed not improving service delivery? Why can't the CJ and Registrar supervise the judges and explain why a ruling of 10 pages takes 7 months to write? Why are matters adjourned daily and not heard? Why are we having these endless, useless workshops and seminars? Isn't it time the CJ tells Kenyans she can't run the judiciary and that she be put on "lighter duties". We have principal judges for all these courts who have given up on their respective courts. Why don't we have a national convention on the sorrow state of our judiciary? Isn't it the right time for the government to declare the judiciary a national emergency/disaster/calamity...@WilliamsRuto @koske_felix @CJMarthaKoome @Kenyajudiciary @HonWetangula @NelsonHavi @philip_murgor @HonAmasonKingi @omwanza @CaroliOmondi @skmusyoka @MarthaKarua @AbdikadirMohami @jsckenya

[The Tax Lawyer® @wakili_dennis]

Finance Bill 2026 is here. Major shifts across various tax heads. Some of the proposed changes:

Tax Filing Deadline: The tax return filing deadline is proposed to be shortened from the last day of the 6th month to the last day of the 4th month following the end of the person's year of income. The new filing date will be 30th April for individuals and companies with December year-end.

Mitumba Traders: Worn clothing importers will pay income tax on 5% of customs value as deemed profit, payable before goods are released upon importation.

CGT: Any sale of shares, by a non-resident person, that derive value from Kenya or cause a change in control of a Kenyan company, proposed to be subject to tax. This will catch all offshore sale of shares by a non-resident person where the shares have a connection to a Kenyan company.

Taxation of Trust Income: Income received by a trustee, executor or administrator is proposed to be deemed income of that trustee. Where a trustee has paid tax on the chargeable income of the trust, beneficiaries shall not be liable to pay further tax on that income. This will simply taxation of trusts.

VAT Exemptions: Mobile phones, electric motorcycles, e-bicycles, solar batteries, electric buses & BEV stoves are proposed to be exempt from VAT. Previously claimed input VAT required to be reversed for unsold exempt stock.

Virtual Assets: Virtual asset service providers must file annual user information returns. Kenya may also enter cross-border data exchange agreements on crypto transactions. Kenya is moving to fully regulate & tax crypto.

Tax Amnesty is back: Proposed tax amnesty on penalties and interest for liabilities up to 31 Dec 2025 where payment of principal amount is made by 31 Dec 2026.

VAT Record-Keeping & Refund Period: The VAT record-keeping and refund period is proposed to be extended from 2 years to 3 years.

EAC Goods Not Treated as Imports: Goods originating from an EAC Partner State that meet EAC Rules of Origin not to be considered an import for excise duty purposes.

Interchange Fees: Interchange fees and merchant service fees arising from card transactions are now expressly included in the definition of "management or professional fee", making them subject to withholding tax. This has been subject to litigation, where KRA lost. This is therefore an attempt to bring the fees within the scope of management fees.

Watch out for detailed alert.
