LIRS Extends Individual Tax Filing Deadline to April 14, 2026
The Lagos State Internal Revenue Service has announced a two-week extension for filing individual annual tax returns. The new deadline moves from April 1 to April 14, 2026. Dr. Ayodele Subair, Executive Chairman of LIRS, emphasized that the statutory deadline remains March 31 each year. However, the extension aims to give taxpayers more time to prepare accurate returns. Electronic filing via the LIRS eTax platform is now mandatory, as manual submissions have been phased out. Taxpayers must use their correct Tax Identification Number when filing. For assistance, individuals can visit any LIRS office or reach out through the Service’s official social media channels, email, or customer care hotline.
