Government Launches Digital Initiatives for Tax, Broadcasting, and Public Access - February 2026

The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has launched the eTIMS Fuel Station System, which requires all petrol stations to issue electronic tax invoices for every transaction to enhance tax compliance. In a separate initiative, the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) has activated a 12-month pilot program for Digital Sound Broadcasting (DSB) services in Nairobi, marking Kenya's first live trial of digital radio. To further enhance digital inclusion, ICT Cabinet Secretary William Kabogo announced the government's plan to establish digital hubs in every ward across Kenya. The goal of the digital hubs is to create opportunities, especially for young people.
