The Lagos Internal Revenue Service (LIRS) issued a notice providing guidelines to taxpayers resident in Lagos State on the process of generating the new electronic tax clearance certificate (eTCC) through its end-to-end tax administration (eTax) platform.
The new eTCC features a unique certificate number and quick response (QR) code as key security features to prevent fraud and ensure authenticity. The LIRS encourages all government organizations and commercial banks to request and validate the eTCC using the security features before conducting businesses with individuals resident in the State.
