Edun Confirms 15% VAT Hike, Limits Increase To Luxury Goods

The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, has confirmed that the federal government is planning to raise the Value Added Tax (VAT) rate to 15%, but emphasized that the hike will largely target luxury goods.

Speaking at an investor forum during the IMF/World Bank Annual Meetings in Washington, D.C., Edun clarified that the proposed VAT increase, currently under consideration by the National Assembly, will be applied gradually and will primarily affect luxury items.

Essential goods, especially those consumed by poorer and vulnerable Nigerians, will continue to be exempt from VAT or attract a zero rate.

“In terms of VAT, President Bola Tinubu’s commitment is that while implementing difficult and wide-ranging but necessary reforms, the poorest and most vulnerable will be protected.

“So, the Bills going through the National Assembly in terms of VAT will raise VAT for the wealthy on luxury goods, while at the same time exempting or applying a zero rate to essentials that the poor and average citizens purchase,” Edun explained.

He further assured that the government will release a list of essential goods exempted from VAT at a later date to provide clarity to the public.
