Tax Calendar Nigeria (2026)
Educational overview only—not legal or tax advice. Verify requirements on official portals and with a qualified adviser.
There is no single universal “one PDF” for every Nigerian taxpayer—states, the FCT, and NRS each publish due dates and changes. A sound tax calendar combines official notices, reminders for PAYE, annual PIT, CIT/VAT cycles, and your commercial year-end. Use this page to structure planning; verify dates at source.
Monthly obligations
Many employers face monthly PAYE remittance. Some taxes (e.g. certain VAT periods) follow monthly or other cycles. Add internal deadlines before statutory dates for processing.
Annual and year-end
Individual and company annual returns have different timelines. Tie them to accounting close and auditor deliverables. See Tax deadlines & penalties for a consolidated discussion.
