They described the reforms as both necessary and timely, stressing that the changes are critical to improving transparency, efficiency, and compliance within Nigeria’s tax system.
The delegation also pledged continued professional engagement and technical support to the NRS in advancing effective tax administration and fostering sustainable economic growth.
In a related development, the Nigeria Revenue Service and the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) have taken concrete steps to deepen collaboration aimed at boosting revenue collection for the Federation.
