Presentation - Messaging matters: The effects of different messages on individual tax payment in Uganda

Consumer incentive schemes are programs that revenue Administrations can use to boost the revenue performance of their Value Added Tax (VAT). These schemes offer consumers incentives encouraging them to participate in the enforcement process. This webinar presents research on Consumer Incentive Schemes and other tax compliance strategies in four countries: Rwanda, Uganda, Uruguay and Zambia. It highlights the lessons that can be learnt for tax policy design and implementation.
