President John Mahama has assented to eight significant bills aimed at reforming Ghana’s tax and financial management systems.
The signings took place on Wednesday, April 2, 2025, at the Jubilee House.
Among the bills signed into law is the Electronic Transfer Levy (Repeal) Bill, 2025, officially abolishing the controversial E-Levy, which taxed electronic financial transactions.
Also repealed is the Emissions Levy (Repeal) Bill, 2025, which previously imposed environmental charges on vehicle users.
Other bills include the Income Tax (Amendment) Bill, 2025, Earmarked Funds Capping and Realignment (Amendment) Bill, 2025, Petroleum Revenue Management (Amendment) Bill, 2025, Public Financial Management Bill, 2025, Value Added Tax (Amendment) Bill, 2025, and the Gold Board Bill, 2025.
The removal was pledged in the National Democratic Congress (NDC)’s manifesto, aimed at reducing the cost of living and encouraging business expansion.
