Afterwards, you will be able to access easily your iTax Account via the KRA iTax Portal Login Page. 

What Is KRA iTax Portal Login Page?

The KRA iTax Portal Login Page is a login functionality or feature on the KRA iTax Web Portal that allows the taxpayer to access his or her KRA iTax Account by entering the KRA iTax Login Credentials that were sent to his or her iTax Registered Email Address.

So, to be able to use the KRA iTax Portal Login Page, you will need to ensure that you have with you the iTax Login Credentials i.e KRA PIN Number and KRA iTax Password. Without these two key credentials, then accessing your iTax Account using the KRA iTax Portal Login Page will be futile and yield to nothing.

Other simple definition that one can use to describe the KRA iTax Portal Page is that it forms part of the KRA iTax Portal homepage. So, when a taxpayer access the KRA iTax Portal, what he or she sees is what is referred to as the KRA Portal Login Page. The KRA Portal Login Page displays all the functionalities that a taxpayer can use on the KRA iTax Portal homepage.

Now that we have addressed the key definition of the iTax Portal Login Page, we need to look at the key reasons why you should login to your KRA iTax Account using the KRA iTax Portal Login Page. I am going to highlight just the key ones, but that does not mean that they are only limited to the ones described here.

Reasons Why You Should Access Your KRA iTax Account Using KRA iTax Portal Login Page

Just as I have described above, there exists many many reasons why a taxpayer might need to access hir or her iTax Account using the KRA Portal Login Page, but only three form the basis for this need on the taxpayer’s side. This includes: iTax First Time Login, iTax Applications and iTax Payments. I am going to highlight each of these reasons in details below.

• iTax First Time Login

When you make an application online at Cyber.co.ke Portal for KRA PIN Registration, the order will be processed and the KRA PIN Number, iTax Login Credentials and KRA PIN Certificate will be sent to the email address that you provided in your KRA PIN Registration form.

For all new taxpayers who have just applied and gotten their KRA PIN Numbers, Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) normally sends the iTax Login Credentials that the taxpayer needs to use on the KRA iTax Portal Login Page so as to be able to login and change the default iTax Password to a new password.

To access your iTax Account, you will need to visit the iTax Portal Login Page and enter both the KRA PIN Number and KRA iTax Password. The same will apply also when you need to reset your iTax Password to a new one.

• iTax Applications

The other important reason why a taxpayer needs to access his or her iTax Account using the KRA iTax Portal Login Page is in case they need to make iTax Applications and Submissions using their iTax Account. There are so many iTax Applications that one can request on his or her iTax Account.

But focussing on the two key one i.e. KRA Returns Application and KRA Tax Compliance Certificate Applications that can only be made when one is logged into his or her KRA Web Portal Account, and this is after accessing the KRA Portal Login Page.

A taxpayer can submit multiple application requests to KRA quickly and easily if they are logged into their KRA iTax Accounts. That means that to be able to access the iTax Applications functionality, you need to be logged in to iTax Portal and this is only possible when you have successfully provided the valid login credentials on the iTax Portal Login Page.

• iTax Payments

Last but definitely not the least reason is the iTax Payments. This is because to be able to make KRA iTax Payments, you need to be logged into your iTax Account and generate the KRA Payment Slips that are needed to make Tax payments to Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA).

You can’t generate iTax Payments Slips if you are not logged into iTax Account, which you can access using the KRA iTax Portal Login Page that requires you enter your iTax Portal Login Credentials i.e. KRA PIN Number and KRA iTax Password.

There are so many types of KRA Payments that a taxpayer can generate Payment Slips for on his or her iTax Account. I will not be able to cover all that for now, but just as a takeaway tip, iTax Payments requires one to use his or her iTax Account once logged in via the iTax Login Page.

Now that we have looked at the reasons why a taxpayer should access his or her KRA iTax Account above, we need to look at the requirements that are needed to access the KRA iTax Account using the KRA iTax Portal Login Page.
