With recent regulatory updates by the Sri Lanka Inland Revenue Department (IRD), possessing a valid Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) is now mandatory for company registrations, opening bank accounts, and property transactions.
What is RAMIS?
The Revenue Administration Management Information System (RAMIS) is the online portal where taxpayers submit corporate income tax, Value Added Tax (VAT), and withholding tax returns electronically. Understanding how to properly register your business and authorize tax agents on RAMIS saves valuable time and eliminates costly filing errors.
Key Steps for TIN Registration
- Prepare Required Documents: For private limited companies, have your Certificate of Incorporation (Form 2A), Articles of Association, and Director NIC/Passport copies ready.
- Online Application via IRD Portal: Submit the e-Service registration request selecting the appropriate tax type.
- Agent Authorization: Designate a professional accounting firm like BrightBook to manage monthly and quarterly filings on your behalf.
