Mandatory payroll schedule for Pay As You Earn (PAYE) submissions

The Minister has instructed the Commissioner General of the Gambia Revenue Authority to implement the provisions of the IVAT Act 2012 fully. Employers in Gambia are reminded of the ongoing requirement to submit a detailed Pay As You Earn (PAYE) Schedule along with their monthly tax payment. As part of this implementation, all Pay As You Earn (PAYE) payments must be submitted with a payroll schedule.

 

We will continue to monitor developments and will provide updates should any payroll-related changes arise.
