Who handles excise registration

Where do we register for excise?

The situation

Excise is administered by the GTA through Dhareeba.

The law

  • Law No. 25 of 2018 on Excise Tax: Excise tax on selected goods such as tobacco and energy and sugary drinks
  • GTA Circular 5 (Dhareeba): From 1 November 2020 all returns, WHT and contract notifications are filed on Dhareeba

What it means for you

Excise is administered by the GTA through Dhareeba. Register before the first import or production of excise goods so customs clearance is not held. Keep stock records to support returns.

What to do

  1. Create or use your Dhareeba account.
  2. Register for excise before the first import.
  3. File excise returns as GTA requires.
  4. Keep stock records.
