Abstract
The study examined the Tax policies and tax compliancy of Vision Africa. The study shall assess the tax policies in Vision Africa, examined out if tax payers are aware of all their tax obligations and policies and to analyze the problems affecting tax payers and their business. A case study research design was employed and a sample size of seventy (60) staff was used. The study also employed a self-administered questionnaire to employees in the tax collection and Vision Africa department as the primary data collection tools. While data analysis conducted with the aid of SPSS software all objectives for the study were explained using a scale ranging from those who strongly agreed, agreed, to those who strongly disagreed, disagreed and then those who are not sure. Key finding reviled that tax compliance significantly influences the performance of tax policies which coincided with the qualitative results which indicated that members within the tax policies sector have been able to enhance their knowledge on taxation and tax administration had a strong positive association with performance of Vision for Africa. The researcher therefore recommends tax administration should use current tax reform to reduce tax complexity with Tax authorities should focus and help taxpayer during filing taxes returns information and tax assessment should be low in order to avoid business out of the market, the rates should also be well known by the tax payer.
