Antigua and Barbuda Inland Revenue Collects EC$377.9m in First Half of 2026

The Inland Revenue Department (IRD) collected EC$377.9 million in taxes during the first six months of 2026, marking a strong increase over the same period last year.

Figures released by the department show collections rose by EC$38 million from EC$339.9 million recorded by the end of June 2025. Revenue has also grown steadily over the past three years, increasing from EC$290.2 million in the first half of 2024.

The IRD said the improved performance was driven by stronger enforcement and more efficient tax administration. Measures included legal action against delinquent taxpayers, expanded audits, intensified efforts to recover outstanding tax arrears, and improved compliance with filing and payment requirements.

Officials said the continued growth reflects the department’s commitment to strengthening tax compliance and improving revenue collection across Antigua and Barbuda.
