GRA renews warning about falsification of documents

The Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA)  yesterday again warned members of the public against the falsification of documents and/or attempts at colluding with anyone, including GRA officers, to defraud the Authority in the course of completing a transaction.

In a statement, the GRA said that persons guilty of such unlawful actions are liable on summary conviction to fines and imprisonment of up to as much as six months, depending on the nature and severity of the offence.

The Authority also reminded the public that employees are not authorised to collect monies from taxpayers for any transaction or offer to complete transactions in exchange for gifts.
