Tax governance in Africa is broken.
ATT closes the gap.

The best tax minds and proprietary technology, always on — so a decided case, a new statute, or a KRA notice never becomes your exposure before you see it.

Built by Tarra Agility — partners who argue these cases before the Tax Appeals Tribunal and the High Court of Kenya.

Three facts every Kenyan MNE CFO needs to hold.

01

Kenya's tax law changes constantly — and changes are immediate.

Finance Acts, TAT rulings, KRA notices, and High Court judgments bind you the day they land — there is no grace period between a new precedent and your exposure.

02

Your finance team cannot track it and run the business simultaneously.

No in-house team can run the business and monitor a legal landscape that shifts every quarter across six tax heads.

03

When KRA finds the gap, the penalty compounds from day one.

KRA assessments are presumed correct, and penalties accrue from the original obligation date — not the audit date. There is no voluntary-disclosure safety net.

Late was enough to lose an entire appeal at the Tribunal

Atta Kenya v CDT (TAT, 2025)

A traditional tax health check costs millions, takes weeks, and is out of date the day it's delivered.

ATT replaces the one-off engagement model with always-on tax monitoring. The same scope. The same expert certification. But continuous — so your finance team is never exposed to a risk that already has a decided case, a statute, or a KRA notice behind it.

High RiskVAT

Your supplier's eTIMS failure is now your VAT liability — and KRA cross-checks at the point of filing.

The Tax Appeals Tribunal ruled in Gedi Boss Trading and Transportation Limited v Commissioner of Domestic Taxes that input VAT is disallowed where the supplier cannot be verified — even if the goods were delivered and payment was made. From January 2026, KRA automatically cross-checks every expense against eTIMS purchase records at the moment of filing. If your supplier is not on eTIMS, your deduction is disallowed before you are aware the risk exists.

What founding members say after their first health check.

"The TP finding alone — KES 12 million exposure we had not identified — justified the entire engagement within 48 hours of submitting our data. I sent the finding directly to our board."
CFO, Manufacturing subsidiaryNairobi (anonymised, consent obtained)
"What distinguished ATT from every other advisory engagement I have had is that they cited the actual case. Not a general principle — the actual decision, the TAT reference, the holding. That is a different product entirely."
Head of Legal, Financial Services groupNairobi (anonymised, consent obtained)
"We had been relying on our ERP's eTIMS integration and assumed it was covering us. The ATT health check identified 11 suppliers — KES 2.8M in input VAT — that were not on eTIMS. We had no idea."
Finance Director, FMCG subsidiaryNairobi (anonymised, consent obtained)
