How To Generate KRA Payment Slip Online (In 5 Steps)

The KRA Payment Slip is a very important document that allows taxpayers in Kenya make payment for any tax due under different tax obligation(s) to Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA). Each time that you file KRA Returns online and there is tax due, you are required to generate a KRA Payment Slip after you have completed filing the return for that specific tax obligation. 

Taxpayers use the KRA Payment Slip to make payments for the taxes due as contained on the payment slip. It is important to note that the KRA Payment Slip contains important details such as the Payment Registration Number, Amount to Pay, Authorized Banks and even the M-PESA Paybill Number 222222 (Government’s Single Payment Platform) that can be used to make any tax payments to KRA. 

To be able to generate KRA Payment Slip online using KRA Portal (iTax Portal), there are two key requirements that a taxpayer needs to ensure they have with them.
