description | This article sets out to provide a comparative analysis of the effect of tax administration reform on tax performance and quasi-voluntary compliance in Tanzania and Uganda. It aims to reveal two findings via the comparison. Empirically, it is claimed that Tanzania achieved better outcomes in terms of both tax performance and quasi-voluntary compliance in general compared to Uganda. Despite the introduction of similar tax administration reform, the tax administrations of Tanzania and Uganda have developed quite differently. Tanzania’s tax administration effectively changed the strategic and normative factors that enhance quasi-voluntary compliance, whereas Uganda’s tax reforms have been stuck in a muddle. Theoretically, it is proposed that tax performance and quasi-voluntary compliance are interconnected. Quasi-voluntary compliance is necessary for achieving high tax performance in an efficient and sustainable manner. High tax performance from competent and fair tax administration improves taxpayers’ willingness to comply voluntarily. Tanzania’s success in tax administration reform led to positive prospects for directing and cementing the processes of state-building with the maturity of state capacity and the concomitant advancement of state–society relations.
Cet article tente de fournir une analyse comparative de l’effet de la réforme de l’administration fiscale sur la performance fiscale et le respect quasi volontaire des obligations fiscales en Tanzanie et en Ouganda. Il révèle deux résultats de comparaison. De manière empirique, il est vrai que la Tanzanie a obtenu de meilleurs résultats en termes de performance fiscale et de conformité quasi volontaire en général par rapport à l’Ouganda. Malgré l’introduction d’une réforme de l’administration fiscale similaire, les administrations fiscales de la Tanzanie et de l’Ouganda ont connu une évolution assez différente. L’administration fiscale de la Tanzanie a efficacement modifié les facteurs stratégiques et normatifs qui renforcent le respect quasi volontaire, tandis que les réformes fiscales en Ouganda restaient embrouillées. Théoriquement, il s’agit d’associer performance fiscale et conformité quasi volontaire. La conformité quasi volontaire est nécessaire pour un rendement fiscal élevé, efficace et durable.
