Chairman of Yemen Tax Authority
Naji Ali Hussein Jaber
Dear Taxpayers, Development Partners, and Visitors to Our Official Website,
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Tax Authority’s official digital platform. We view this platform not merely as a source of information or a virtual channel for communication, but as a renewed institutional commitment and a practical expression of our strategic vision to build a modern tax administration founded on efficiency, transparency and sound governance, driven by comprehensive digital transformation.
As one of the sovereign public finance institutions under the Ministry of Finance, the Tax Authority has a vital national role that extends well beyond the traditional function of revenue collection. We aspire to develop into a modern institution that contributes actively to financial and economic stability. Tax revenues are a principal source of sustainable public finance, enabling the State to meet its obligations, finance public services and create a secure and predictable environment for investment under the rule of law.
“A modern tax administration is built on trust between the Authority and taxpayers before procedures, and on shared awareness of the importance of public revenue to development.”
From this perspective, we believe that the success of the tax system cannot be measured solely by procedural capacity or the volume of revenue collected. It must also be measured by our ability to build voluntary trust within the taxpayer community. We are committed to establishing a balanced relationship with taxpayers based on mutual respect and clarity, where rights and obligations complement one another, and taxpayers are treated as genuine partners in development. This partnership is essential to strengthening voluntary tax compliance.
In support of this strategic direction, the Tax Authority is advancing a clear and carefully planned programme of institutional modernization. Our priorities include adopting modern digital systems, simplifying administrative procedures, investing in human capital and accelerating the comprehensive digitalization of services. Our central objective is to harness technology to provide taxpayers with a flexible, efficient and fair experience that promotes integrity and accountability and keeps pace with rapidly changing economic conditions.
This upgraded website is intended to serve as the Authority’s principal interactive and information platform. It brings together legislation, regulations, operational guidance and smart electronic services within an accessible environment that supports the dissemination of information and strengthens a constructive tax culture.
Modernization is not a one-time initiative; it is a continuous institutional process shaped by innovation, learning and improvement. We therefore welcome constructive views, proposals and initiatives submitted through this platform, confident that effective institutional and community collaboration is an essential foundation for lasting success.
In closing, we renew our solemn commitment before Almighty Allah, our nation, and our fellow citizens to uphold the values of integrity, justice, and national responsibility; to work as one team in accordance with high professional standards; and to support genuine development and a more secure and prosperous future for Yemen
May Allah guide our efforts toward what is best for our country and enable us all to fulfil this national responsibility with integrity, dedication and competence.
Naji Ali Hussein Jaber
Chairman of Yemen Tax Authority
