The agency’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr Frank Kanyusi said various measures have been taken to improve business environment and make Tanzania a preferred destination for both domestic and foreign investors.
“We are implementing various projects to make it easy for people to register business names and companies with efficiency,” he told journalists in Dar es Salaam on Wednesday.
Giving an example of some of the measures taken, Mr Kanyusi said the agency’s clients will now get their Tax Identification Number (TIN) at Brela premises after the opening of Tanzania Revenue Office (TRA).
The improvement goes hand in hand with the agency’s relocation to a new modern Ushirika Tower along Lumumba Street where the offices will be at Sixth, Seventh and Eighth floors.
“The new office will help us discharge our services with efficiency and therefore positively contribute to national economy,” he noted.
He explained that the new building has provided the agency with a much bigger space that will enable them serve many people, at the shortest time with efficiency.
Services will be offered at the reception where all concerned officials will be stationed. Acting Business Support Manager, Brela, Mr Bosco Gadi said the arrangement for all officers to offer services together an open space is meant to bring transparency. “We want to be exemplary in service delivery,” he said.
On her part, a TRA official stationed at Brela to offer TIN number services, Irene Cidosa said the authority want to simplify issuance of TIN services to as many Tanzanians as possible.
“It will now be simple for people with their business name licences to get their TIN number...this is instant and free of charge service,” Ms Cidosa who is also TRA’s Information Officer explained.
Brela is about to introduce an online business name registration system where it will take just few hours for someone to get a certified business name from the Agency. The system, according to experts, will help formalise many businesses.
