The Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS), in collaboration with the Joint Revenue Board (JRB), has announced that it will commence implementation of the Taxpayer Identification (Tax ID) system, urging companies, individuals, enterprises, and businesses to integrate onto the platform as it replaces the existing TIN Validation API.
NRS disclosed the move on Monday in a statement posted on its X handle, noting that the effort is to deliver services across the nation’s tax system.
The initiative forms part of ongoing efforts to strengthen tax administration and enhance tax transparency.
The new development follows the launch of Rev360 by NRS, an integrated and intelligent ecosystem to meet taxpayers’ needs and integrate the tax system since the Nigeria 2025 tax reform took effect on 1 January.
NRS said the implementation of Tax ID is in line with Sections 6, 7, and 8 of the Nigeria Tax Administration Act, 2025, which mandate every taxable person in Nigeria to obtain a Tax ID.
