September has come and gone but your tax obligations haven’t.
If you’re serious about staying compliant and avoiding unnecessary penalties, you need more than good intentions. You need a monthly tax calendar.
It keeps you alert. It keeps you prepared. Most importantly, it keeps your money from slipping away through avoidable fines.
Taxes October demands from you for September transactions:
Pay As You Earn (PAYE): File and pay on or before 10th October 2026. Your employees have done their part. Make sure you do yours.
Value Added Tax (VAT): File and pay on or before 21st October 2026.
VAT is not your money. Don’t let it sit.
Withholding Tax (WHT): File and pay on or before 21st October 2026. Delay can attract penalties and interest and they add up quickly.
Company Income Tax (CIT): Your audited financial statements must be filed within 6 months after your financial year-end. Don’t wait until the last minute. Audit delays can be costly and stressful.
A missed date may look small on the calendar but it can be expensive in reality.
Keep your tax calendar visible. Set reminders. Stay ahead. Because in taxation, discipline saves money.
