How eTIMS fits rental and management income, what to document, and why a single financial system makes compliance easier—not harder.

KRA eTIMS compliance for property management companies in Kenya

Electronic invoicing is now part of how many businesses interact with KRA. Property managers who charge management fees or issue invoices to landlords need processes that are consistent and traceable.

Why integration beats bolt-on

When rent collection, invoicing, and accounting live in separate tools, eTIMS data may not match your ledger. A single platform reduces duplicate entry and reconciliation gaps.

Records to maintain

Keep a clear trail from tenant payment to management fee recognition and any invoices issued through eTIMS. Your auditor—and KRA—will expect alignment between bank, M-Pesa, and books.
