The Office of the Commissioner for Revenue is currently undergoing changes within the amalgamation process of the VAT and Income Tax.

The Office of the Commissioner for Revenue informs the public that tax payments are to be made Online (24X7) or at any MaltaPost Branch in cash (up to €5,000) or by cheque payable to CfR.
