ABUJA, Nigeria (NPA) — The Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) has disassociated itself from a flyer circulating online which falsely claims that the agency has introduced a new vehicle tax regime to take effect from July 1, 2026.

In a statement issued on Monday, the NRS described the flyer as fraudulent and urged members of the public to disregard it. The agency stressed that it had not issued any such notice.

A portion of the statement reads: “FAKE NEWS ALERT! A fraudulent flyer claiming a new vehicle tax takes effect July 1, 2026 is spreading online. The NRS did NOT issue this notice. If you receive it, delete it. If you’ve shared it, correct the record.”

The agency reaffirmed its commitment to transparent communication and advised citizens to rely only on official channels for verified information regarding tax policies.
