Tax is a factor in almost every transaction we advise on, and an increasingly aggressive area of enforcement by the Kenya Revenue Authority. We help clients structure their affairs efficiently and lawfully, and we defend them when the Authority disagrees.

Working alongside clients' accountants and international tax advisors, we bring the legal perspective: statutory interpretation, treaty analysis, procedural rights during audits and the litigation skills needed to take a dispute through the Tax Appeals Tribunal and the courts.

Who We Act For

Multinationals and foreign investors, Kenyan corporates and family businesses, high-net-worth individuals, expatriates and non-resident investors.

Why GNA
  • Legal rigour in a field often left to accountants alone
  • Integrated with our corporate, property and immigration teams so tax is considered from the start
  • Litigation experience for when negotiation with the KRA reaches its limit
