Mining and Extractive Sector Tax, Royalties and Fiscal Compliance

Mining and extractive companies operate under a distinct fiscal regime of royalties, capital allowances and special deductions that general tax training does not cover. This course works through mineral royalty computation, the tax treatment of exploration and capital expenditure, and the compliance obligations unique to the sector. It reflects the fiscal frameworks that miners across Southern and East Africa contend with.

What you will be able to do

  • Explain the fiscal regime that applies to mining and extractive operations.
  • Compute mineral and petroleum royalties under applicable formulas.
  • Apply capital allowances and special deductions for exploration and development.
  • Manage ring fencing and loss treatment specific to extractive projects.
  • Meet the compliance and reporting obligations unique to the sector.
  • Anticipate revenue authority focus areas in extractive sector audits.
