    A KRA Nil return is filed by individuals who have the Kenya Revenue Authority, KRA, PINs  but are not formally employed. As thus, such individuals do not pay income tax otherwise referred to as Pay As You Earn (PAYE).

    If you have a KRA PIN it is important that you file your returns within the set timelines; usually between January and June of every year. Failure to file Nil returns (just like in other returns) attracts a hefty fine from KRA. 

    In case you are wondering how file nil returns, worry not as this is the simplest type of return to file. In fact it takes less than one minute on a good network.

    All that you are required to have is your KRA PIN and Password to log into your KRA iTax portal. If by any chance you can not recall your KRA password, you can always easily reset it here.
