During his visit on December 9, 2025, the minister engaged with staff and emphasised that the national revenue target set for the year must be achieved at all costs.
Dr Ato Forson highlighted three major reforms aimed at modernising and strengthening Ghana’s tax net in 2026: a redesigned VAT system, the introduction of fiscal electronic devices to improve compliance and transparency, and the launch of a national VAT Reward Scheme to incentivize taxpayers.
