The Inland Revenue Division collects income, sales, withholding and goods taxes as well as undertaking vehicle licensing for the Government.
In conjunction with the Economic Reform Unit, it also assists with the provision of policy advice to the Government on taxation issues.
Applying efficient and effective approaches to administer taxation legislation, the Division helps to fund the work of the Solomon Islands Government by collecting about 60% of its revenue.
| The Division’s approach is to ensure that the tax system:
-
is easy to work with and understand; -
provides people the assistance they need to comply; -
is hard for people to avoid or evade their obligations; and -
takes the appropriate action against people who do not comply. |
To help the community understand and meet their taxation obligations the Division has officers sited in Honiara, Auki and Gizo. It also operates an advisory service for business taxpayers
