STATEMENT

1.3 STATEMENT OF WORK:

1.3.1 Background/Introduction

The U.S. Embassy Nairobi (Mission) is soliciting tax consultancy and withholding services for the Tax Year 2026 as the Mission continues to withhold income taxes and other required statutory deductions on behalf of all U.S. Government employees who are obligated to pay income tax and statutory deductions under Kenya law. The Mission requires the services of a contractor to provide guidance on employee tax obligations and withholdings, calculate required withholdings, and remit taxes and deductions to the Kenya Revenue
