Ethiopia Reorganizes Tax Administration: Registration, Segmentation, Electronic Systems, and the Transition to the Amended Regime
In Part One of this series, we examined the conciliation regime introduced by Proclamation No. 1434/2026. In Part Two, we examined the reworked limitation periods, the new statutory code on revision of assessments, the tightened rules on new evidence, and the conditional tax clearance certificate. In Part Three, we examined the revised penalties, the expanded definition of tax fraud, the treatment of officers of bodies, and the recalibrated rules on freezing orders and seizure. In this concluding Part Four, we turn to the institutional and administrative changes introduced by the amendment, to the renumbering of the Proclamation, to the transitional provisions governing pending cases, and to the practical compliance implications for taxpayers, advisers, and financial institutions.
