The agencies help the government in collection of revenue from different sources, including Value Added Tax (VAT), oil revenue, and Company Income Tax (CIT), among other revenues. Breakdown showed that while the FIRS collected N10.1 trillion in revenue in 2022 while it received N200.16 billion, representing two percent of total generation as the cost of collection. The Nigerian Customs Service (NCS), which followed with N2.60 trillion revenue generation, withdrew N128.64 billion (5%) as cost of collection, while NUPRC, with no available data of its revenue collection on its website, received the least at N98.01 billion. This represents a 17.4 percent rise compared to N83.51 billion received by the agency as collection in 2021. Recall that in a bid to raise revenue collection, the federal government had introduced certain amendments in the Finance Act 2022. Under the Finance Act, digital assets, including cryptocurrency, would be recognized as chargeable assets and gains accruing from the disposal of such digital assets are subject to capital gains tax at the rate of 10 percent; increase in Tertiary Education Tax (TET) rate from 2.5 percent to 3.0 percent; increase in the corporate tax rate of companies engaged in gas flaring from 30 percent to 50 percent; a levy of 0.5 percent was imposed on all eligible goods imported into Nigeria from outside Africa. There was also the introduction of taxes on Non-Resident Companies (NRCs) with digital presence in Nigeria among others.
