With the Nigeria Tax Act 2025 now in force, taxpayers are legally required to settle their obligations through digital channels. The law expressly removes cash collections and mandates electronic payment systems to improve transparency and accountability, as provided in Section 71 of the NTAA 2025.
Tax TV has compiled a directory of verified official tax portals covering all 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. The guide is intended as a quick reference for online billing, taxpayer registration, and revenue returns at the subnational level, helping taxpayers comply with the new statutory requirements.
The publication also sets out key compliance points. First, cash payments are no longer permitted; remittances must go through the listed digital gateways or approved bank channels that issue an automated Revenue Receipt. Second, most state portals require a Tax Identification Number, which can be verified or newly registered through the Joint Tax Board portal at tin.jtb.gov.ng. Third, taxpayers should download the electronic receipt generated by the relevant state portal after completing any payment as evidence of compliance.
Tax TV advises users to confirm web addresses before entering sensitive payment information and to ensure they are transacting on official government-secured domains.
