THE Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (Zimra) has announced the appointment of Ms Regina Chinamasa as its substantive commissioner general with effect from 1 September 2022.
Before her appointment to the new post, Ms Chinamasa was substantive commissioner revenue assurance and acting commissioner general since 1 February 2022.
“Zimra board wishes to announce the appointment of Regina Chinamasa as the substantive commissioner general of the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority effective 1 September 2022,” said Zimra in a statement.
“Regina is a tax expert with over 28 years of diverse experience in the field of revenue mobilization customs, domestic taxes and enforcement of compliance of fiscal laws.
“During her time as commissioner revenue assurance, Regina is credited for introducing in Zimra processes that are plugging revenue leakages through innovative and modern investigative and compliance systems.
“She served in various leadership roles in the domestic taxes customs and revenue assurance division.”
Zimra said the board believes that under the leadership of Ms Chinamsa, the tax authority will scale to new heights while fulfilling its mandate of revenue collection and trade facilitation.
Zimra has been operating without a substantive commissioner general after the departure of Ms Faith Mazani in January last year who left the organisation to join the International Monetary Fund.
