The Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) has announced the extension of its operations to Saturdays as part of efforts to support taxpayers using its newly launched tax administration platform, Rev360.

The development becomes important as the service prepares for the June peak period for tax filing.

The disclosure was contained in a statement signed by the Executive Chairman of the NRS, Dr. Zacch Adedeji, and posted on the agency’s official X handle on Thursday.

According to the tax authority, all Emerging, Medium, Large, and Government Business Offices nationwide will now operate on Saturdays between May 8 and June 27, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

The NRS said the extended operations are aimed at helping taxpayers navigate the new Rev360 platform and comply with tax obligations during the peak filing season.

“The Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) hereby informs the general public, particularly taxpayers, that all Emerging, Medium, Large, and Government Business Offices nationwide will be open on Saturdays from 8 May to 27 June, 2026. Opening Hours: 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.”

“This initiative is part of the commitment of the Service to provide additional taxpayer support and service delivery as the rollout of Rev360 Phase I Tax Administration System commences for Medium and Emerging Taxpayer segments,” the statement says.

The agency added that the move is expected to facilitate seamless compliance during the June Companies Income Tax filing period while also improving access to tax services outside regular working days.

The announcement follows the recent launch of Rev360, the NRS’s next-generation tax administration platform.

Rev360 officially went live on April 30 as part of the agency’s transition to “Tax Administration 3.0.”

The platform is designed to provide a more integrated, transparent, and efficient tax administration system.

According to the NRS, the platform builds on previous digital reforms aimed at improving taxpayer experience and compliance.

The agency said the new system reflects its commitment to innovation and improved service delivery in Nigeria’s tax administration framework.
