Prof Wangwe hailed the decision of charging the Value Added Tax at the end of quarter business, saying it is healthy to the country\u2019s economy as it offers an ample time of focusing the venture capital into business\u2019s growth.<\/p>\n<p>However, the researcher and a consultant was quick to caution that there is a need for a clear system of harmonizing various taxes and levies which acts as tediousness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is good that a number of fees among regulatory bodies have been waived. This is health for business, however, the challenge remains to different types of taxes, levies and charges among different regulatory bodies which need to be harmonized and some others written off,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Prof Wangwe highlighted that some of the procedures of starting up and running new business are not in a simple language, which necessitated extra cost of hiring a consultant.<\/p>\n<p>He said that for example, filling files on BRELA website has some technical legal language, while it can easily be simplified to grant any layman an avenue of filing the forms on their own without paying a third party person for help.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AfricaPress-Tanzania: STAKEHOLDERS have advised for more creativity in eliminating all the hurdles for the country to promote potential investors and lucrative business opportunities for economic development.
