Under Nigeria's Personal Income Tax Act (PITA), any individual earning income from trade, business, profession, or vocation—including freelance and side-income activities—is required to file annual returns with the relevant State Internal Revenue Service. Income from digital platforms, content creation, freelance services, and other informal earnings streams falls within the tax net.
