Why records matter
Rental income is typically taxable; allowable expenses may reduce the chargeable amount. KRA can only work from what you can substantiate—invoices, agreements, and bank records.
Themes to discuss with your advisor
How you recognise income, what expenses are deductible, withholding where applicable, and alignment with eTIMS if you operate through a company or issue tax invoices.
Software as foundation
