HARNESSING DIGITAL SYSTEMS TO DRIVE NATIONAL REVENUE EXPANSION

How ETS, Fuel Marking and Data-Driven Tools Transformed Tanzania’s Revenue Assurance Landscape in 2025

Tanzania’s revenue performance in 2025 continues to reflect a clear strategic shift: expanding the tax base while aggressively protecting and optimising existing revenue streams through digital systems.

In the first quarter of the 2025/2026 financial year, the Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) collected TZS 8.97 trillion, surpassing its quarterly target by more than 6 percent and recording a 15 percent year-on-year increase compared to the same period in 2024. At the centre of this achievement is the growing role of technology-led solutions such as Electronic Tax Stamps (ETS) and the Fuel Marking Programme, which are redefining how revenue assurance is delivered.

This progress underscores a powerful reality: when tax systems become smarter, the national purse becomes stronger.

Turning Tax Systems into Intelligence Systems

The Electronic Tax Stamps (ETS) system has evolved beyond a compliance requirement to become a real-time intelligence engine. By replacing traditional paper stamps with secure, traceable digital tax stamps, regulators can now track excisable goods seamlessly from the factory floor to retail shelves.

During the 2024/2025 financial year, TRA collected TZS 32.26 trillion, achieving 103 percent of its target and marking a 16.7 percent increase from the previous year. TRA publicly credited technology-enhanced compliance mechanisms—particularly ETS—for strengthening the integrity of excise tax collection.

The impact has been especially notable in excise duty and VAT collections on domestic excisable products, which reached record levels in 2024/2025. Since TRA announced the ETS programme in 2016, excise duty revenues on marked products have increased by 94.4 percent, highlighting the long-term value of digital enforcement.

Safeguarding Fuel Integrity: Protecting Revenue and Transparency

Fuel marking remains a cornerstone of protecting one of Tanzania’s most sensitive revenue streams—the petroleum sector. The system safeguards against fuel adulteration, illicit trade, and tax leakages, all while promoting consumer confidence.

According to EWURA reports, compliance rates now exceed 96 percent, with billions of litres of fuel tested and validated using invisible forensic markers. These markers enable instant verification of fuel authenticity and dilution detection, ensuring that both government revenues and consumers are protected.

AIRTEL EXPANDS NETWORK COVERAGE WITH FIVE NEW COMMUNICATION TOWERS ACROSS TANZANIA

Dar es Salaam, December 22, 2025 — Airtel Tanzania has continued to strengthen its footprint across the country by officially launching five new communication towers in the regions of Kigoma, Singida, Kilimanjaro, Geita, and Morogoro. The initiative is part of the company’s ongoing strategy to expand network coverage and improve access to reliable communication services for Tanzanians in both urban and rural areas.

Speaking during the launch in Kigoma, the Regional Manager, Mr. Issack Kijuu, noted that residents in some villages had long struggled to communicate with their relatives due to weak or completely unavailable network signals, particularly in low-lying areas.

“There have been times when villagers could not communicate at all. The construction of this tower is a major relief, and we sincerely appreciate Airtel for bringing this vital infrastructure to our community,” he said.

Boosting Connectivity in Central and Lake Zones

Addressing residents in Singida, the Central Zone Airtel Marketing Manager, Mr. Salum Ngururu, emphasized the importance of communication in driving social and economic development.

“We all recognize how essential communication is in our society. Airtel has therefore decided to expand its coverage to reach our brothers and sisters here in Singida. This tower will enable access to Airtel services such as voice calls, mobile money transactions, and high-speed 4G and 5G internet,” he explained.

In the Lake Zone, Airtel Manager Mr. Joseph Mushi told residents of Nyarututu Village in Bwanga Ward, Geita Region, that growing demand for communication—driven largely by digital transformation—has compelled Airtel to invest in areas that previously lacked reliable communication infrastructure.

“As digital growth continues, Airtel is expanding its network to underserved areas, just as we have done here in Geita, to ensure communities are not left behind,” he said.

This tower will make it easier for residents to access Airtel services such as voice calls, money transfers, and high-speed 4G and 5G internet,”said Mr. Ngururu.

In Mkuranga, Kimanzichana Regional Manager, Mr. Lusajo Mwakapeje, noted that residents had long faced challenges in communicating with relatives and business partners due to weak or nonexistent network coverage in the lowland areas.

Similarly, Airtel Karatu Regional Manager, Mr. Kephar Kileo, highlighted the growing demand for communication services driven by digital transformation.

SBL NA BOLT WASHIRIKIANA KUWEZESHA SHEREHE SALAMA KWA WATANZANIA MSIMU WA SIKUKUU

Dar es Salaam, Tanzania | 17 Disemba 2025

Msimu wa sikukuu unapowadia, furaha huongezeka, safari huongezeka na usiku kuwa mrefu zaidi. Lakini katikati ya shangwe hizo, Kampuni ya Bia ya Serengeti (SBL) kwa kushirikiana na Bolt wamekuja na ujumbe mmoja muhimu: sherehe salama, nyumbani salama.

Kupitia ushirikiano maalum uliozinduliwa jijini Dar es Salaam, kampuni hizi mbili zinawahamasisha Watanzania kufanya maamuzi sahihi baada ya kusherehekea—hasa pale inapofika suala la usafiri—kwa lengo la kupunguza ajali za barabarani zinazotokana na kuendesha gari ukiwa umelewa.

Ushirikiano Unaounganisha Uwajibikaji na Urahisi wa Usafiri

Mpango huu unaunganisha kampeni ya unywaji wa kuwajibika ya SBL ijulikanayo kama Wrong Side of the Road (WSOTR) na huduma za usafiri za Bolt, ili kuhakikisha usafiri salama unapatikana kwa urahisi zaidi wakati wa msimu wenye msongamano mkubwa wa magari barabarani.

Ushirikiano huu utaendeshwa katika kipindi chote cha sikukuu, ukiwalenga Watanzania wanaopenda kusherehekea bila kuhatarisha usalama wao na wa wengine barabarani.

Disemba na Changamoto za Usalama Barabarani

Kwa kawaida, mwezi wa Disemba ni miongoni mwa miezi yenye shughuli nyingi zaidi barabarani nchini. Safari za likizo, mikusanyiko ya kijamii na matumizi ya pombe huongezeka kwa kasi—hali ambayo mara nyingi huchangia ongezeko la ajali za barabarani.

Kupitia ushirikiano huu, SBL na Bolt wanalenga kukabiliana na changamoto hiyo kwa kutoa suluhisho linalochanganya elimu, motisha na urahisi wa kupata usafiri salama.

WSOTR: Kampeni Inayoendelea Kuokoa Maisha

Ushirikiano huu ni sehemu ya kampeni endelevu ya Wrong Side of the Road ya SBL, iliyoanzishwa mwaka 2023 chini ya kaulimbiu Inawezekana, kuboreshwa mwaka 2024 kuwa Inawezekana kuwa mtu makini, na kuendelea mwaka 2025 chini ya ujumbe wenye nguvu:

The initiative is aimed at empowering local firms to undertake larger, more complex projects and play a stronger role in the island’s economic development.

The landmark announcement was made during a high-profile event held at Hotel Verde, Zanzibar, which brought together senior government officials, industry leaders, and contractors from across the archipelago.

Government Endorsement Underscores Strategic Importance

The event was graced by the Minister of Works and Transport, Hon. Dr. Khalid Salum Mohamed, who served as the Guest of Honor, underscoring the government’s strong commitment to building a robust, self-reliant construction industry. Leading the NMB delegation was the Chief of Retail Banking, Mr. Filbert Mponzi, who outlined the bank’s transformative support measures.

He further urged local contractors to seize the opportunities presented by NMB’s enhanced services, noting that improved access to financial guarantees would enable them to compete more effectively for large-scale projects traditionally dominated by foreign firms.

“These guarantees will empower you to compete for larger tenders which, for too long, have been dominated by foreign entities,” the Minister appealed, echoing President Dr. Hussein Mwinyi’s calls to strengthen local capacity and participation in strategic national projects.

Tukio la WE GIVE BACK 2025 liliwahusisha watoto na vijana 156 kutoka maeneo ya Kijitonyama – Sayansi, Ubungo, Coco Beach, Kinondoni – Morocco, na Kariakoo. Kwa mujibu wa takwimu za mpango huo, washiriki wengi wameishi mitaani kwa kipindi kinachokadiriwa kati ya miezi mitatu hadi miaka 15.

Ripoti ya WE GIVE BACK 2025 inaonesha kundi la vijana wenye umri mdogo, ari ya kujifunza, na dhamira ya kujenga upya maisha yao. Hata hivyo, juhudi zao zinakwazwa na changamoto za kimfumo zikiwemo:

• Ukosefu wa Vitambulisho vya Taifa (NIDA)
• Makazi yasiyo na uhakika
• Upatikanaji mdogo wa mafunzo ya ujuzi
• Changamoto za afya na msaada wa kisaikolojia

Kwa mujibu wa ripoti hiyo, ni washiriki wanne tu kati ya 156 waliokuwa na vitambulisho vya NIDA, huku vijana 86wakihitaji kwa dharura kusajiliwa – hali inayozuia kabisa upatikanaji wa ajira, mafunzo, na ujumuishwaji rasmi katika jamii.

Hamasa Kubwa kwa Mafunzo ya Ufundi

Pamoja na changamoto hizo, ripoti inaonesha hamasa kubwa ya vijana kushiriki mafunzo ya ufundi stadi kupitia VETA, hususan katika fani za:

• Udereva na ufundi wa magari
• TEHAMA
• Ukarimu na hoteli (hospitality)
• Uchomeleaji (welding)
• Umeme
