Dar es Salaam. A six-year-year battle ended in disappointment for Total Tanzania Limited, which has been resisting a Sh436.4 million tax on imported aviation fuel, after the Court of Appeal rejected its appeal.
Three justices of the highest court have sided with the Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) that JET A1 aviation fuel attracted the Railway Development Levy (RDL), rejecting Total’s argument that the consignment was not subject to the levy because it was declared for home consumption.
