Miss a deadline.
Pay the penalty.
Never again.

Our team verifies deadlines against official regulatory authority websites at least quarterly. Each event shows a "last verified" date. When laws change — like Kenya replacing NHIF with SHIF in October 2024 — we update within 48 hours. Subscribe to email alerts and we'll notify you of any deadline changes in your countries.

Yes. The calendar app lets you select up to 5 countries simultaneously. All events are interleaved chronologically so you see the full compliance burden in one view. Useful for companies with subsidiaries or employees in multiple African countries.

Remittance means paying the money (e.g., transferring PAYE to FIRS). Filing means submitting the return/declaration form (e.g., uploading the EMP201 to SARS eFiling). Most African jurisdictions require both — and some have different deadlines for each. Our calendar shows the stricter deadline and notes the distinction where relevant.

We publish verified rates with the date last confirmed. Penalty legislation changes infrequently — FIRS and SARS haven't changed their PAYE penalty structures in years — but always confirm with your accountant or the official portal before using these figures in legal or financial decisions. Our data is for planning and awareness, not legal advice.

Most African tax authorities require remittance on or before the due date. If the due date falls on a weekend or public holiday, the general rule is to remit the preceding business day — though some authorities (like FIRS) accept the next business day. Our calendar computes the last business day for events marked as such (e.g., Nigeria PAYE). Always check your local authority's guidance for public holiday adjustments.
