Ezulwini – The Eswatini Revenue Service has launched a two day Tax and Customs retreat with Members of Parliament, as part of efforts to strengthen cooperation and deepen understanding of tax and customs compliance in the Kingdom.

The retreat, which runs from 5 to 6 August 2026, will cover tax and customs compliance, enforcement processes, new revenue initiatives, and integrity and whistleblowing mechanisms. ERS said the programme is meant to build awareness, encourage voluntary compliance and support effective revenue administration in Eswatini.
