A two-day ‘Armed Forces Income Tax Fair-2018′ began at the city’s Sena Malancha convention hall on Wednesday aiming to facilitate tax services to the armed forces’ members.
Tax Zone-9, Dhaka, of the National Board of Revenue (NBR) and the Armed Forces Division (AFD) jointly organised the tax fair with a view to promoting income tax culture.
Adjutant General of Bangladesh Army Major General Mohammad Humayun Kabir inaugurated the fair as the chief guest while NBR member (Tax administration and human resources management) Ziauddin Mahmud attended it as special guest. Commissioner of the Tax Zone-9 Mahmudur Rahman presided over the function.
Speaking on the occasion, Humayun Kabir said income tax, given by eligible people, is playing a vital role in continuing the country’s development activities.
The fair will help the members of armed forces complete their tax related services, he added.
He urged the NBR officials to make the tax return submission process easier so that everybody can submit their returns easily. Ziauddin Mahmud said there is no alternative to boosting tax collection for strengthening the country’s economy. “That’s why everybody should pay tax,” he added.
Mahmudur Rahman said paying income tax is an urgent for protecting the country’s economy, in which way the armed forces protect the country’s sovereignty.
“Income tax payment is also important for ensuring good governance and accountability in the country,” he said.
At the fair venue, tax officials are offering various tax-related services, including taxpayer identification number (TIN) registration, return submission, and consultancy.
