The Gambia Revenue Authority (GRA) recognises the need to maximise its resources to meet its statutory obligations to the government and to the community. The Domestic Taxes Department’s mandates are to optimize compliance in accordance with revenue laws, collect revenues, and to offer customer service in a professional, transparent, effective and efficient manner to all stakeholders. The Compliance Risk Management (CRM) Framework is an effective tool intended to minimise the uncertainty generated by risk, which would impact on these mandates.
