Zimra’s vice-chairperson, Ms Josephine Matambo announced in her revenue performance report for the first quarter ending March 31, 2020, that the tax collector had a target of $12.57 billion which was surpassed by 10.42 percent.

All revenue heads registered growth in nominal terms. She added that major contributors to revenue were individuals (17 percent), excise duty (16 percent, companies and Value Added Tax on local sales both contributed 14 percent, while VAT on imports contributed 11 percent. Public Finance experts have always noted that the country could be mobilising more revenue were it not of porous borders, hard to tax sectors and tax evasion, which constitute soft spots for revenue leakage. The general public is however concerned over “meaningless” reports of “surplus” or “surpassing the targets” when the economic and humanitarian crisis continues unabated.
