Under Ethiopia Tax Systems Transformation Programme (TSTP), DFID and Government of Ethiopia (GoE) established a Tax Transformation Office (TTO) in the Ethiopian Customs and Revenue Authority (ERCA). This unit is designed to drive the institutional transformation of ERCA and implement tax policy reforms aimed at responsible and equitable increase of tax revenues in Ethiopia.
We are assessing the performance of TSTP for the Government of Ethiopia to help them support various reform initiatives namely, taxpayers’ database management, tax policy shifts, capacity building and IT infrastructure development. The assessment focusses on economic benefit analysis and distributional impacts of tax reforms in Ethiopia including, welfare gains through potential effects on GDP and employment.
