Form DT-2031 is the Monthly VAT Return filed with the Uganda Revenue Authority by all VAT-registered businesses. Uganda VAT is charged at the standard rate of 18% on taxable supplies and imports.
The return covers all purchase and sales transactions for the period, enabling taxpayers to calculate output VAT minus input VAT credits to determine the net liability. Late filing attracts a penalty of UGX 200,000 or 2% of the tax liability, whichever is higher, plus 2% per month interest. Filing is done via the URA e-Tax portal at etax.ura.go.ug.
