Abstract

The study sought to carry out a critical review of literature on tax education and tax compliance. Based on the review of empirical literature, it was found that tax education has significant effect on tax compliance. It was consequently concluded that tax education is important in predicting the level of tax compliance. The study recommends that in order to improve the tax compliance level, governments should put in place and sustain public tax awareness programs as these will highlight the importance of tax revenue which is driven by tax compliance level. Tax authorities should support tax education as this has a favorable impact on taxpayer compliance and subsequently tax revenue. In order to improve on the general tax knowledge of citizens and subsequently increase tax compliance, revenue authorities and players in the educational sector should collaborate and come up with tax awareness activities. Keywords: Tax Education, Tax Compliance, Stakeholder Theory and Theory of Planned Behaviour
