The Gambia Revenue Authority (GRA) is proud to announce the participation of key officials in the recent IMF Tax Administration Diagnostic Assessment Tool (TADAT) Regional Workshop held from September 8 to 12, 2025, in Port Louis, Mauritius.

Their participation underscores GRA’s commitment to enhancing tax system integrity and reflecting the nation’s dedication to building a resilient revenue administration aligned with global standards.
The workshop’s theme, “Beyond 10 Years of TADAT Assessment: Building Stronger Tax Systems for Tomorrow with TADAT Field Guide 2025,” celebrated a decade of impactful assessments across the globe. Over the past ten years, a total of 203 TADAT assessments have been conducted in 112 countries, with more than 5,000 professionals certified as TADAT Assessors.

Participants explored the latest updates in the TADAT Field Guide 2025 and discussed how to leverage assessment outcomes to foster transparency, efficiency, and compliance in revenue administration.
GRA remains dedicated to leveraging insights from TADAT assessments to support sustainable development and improve revenue collection for national growth. The active participation in this regional forum reaffirms GRA’s pledge to continuous improvement and international collaboration.
