*Why FG Bans Road Taxes, Checkpoints and Stickers*
*Nigeria has taken a bold step in tax reform by banning the collection of road taxes through roadside checkpoints and stickers, a practice that has frustrated motorists for decades. This move comes under the new tax laws implemented nationwide in 2026, aimed at modernizing tax administration and reducing harassment on the roads* .
Road Taxes Outlawed
The Joint Revenue Board (JRB) announced that all forms of roadside levies, including road tax stickers, are now illegal. Drivers are no longer required to stop at checkpoints to pay fees, a practice that was often inconsistent, unregulated, and sometimes exploited by officials.
“This is a major win for motorists and a step toward transparent taxation,” said the JRB. Security agencies have been instructed to dismantle illegal checkpoints and ensure full compliance with the law.
*Why This Matters*
For years, Nigerian drivers endured multiple roadside levies under different names, creating confusion and opportunities for corruption. By outlawing these practices, the government intends to:
• Protect motorists from illegal collections and harassment
• Streamline tax administration under the new centralized system
• Increase voluntary compliance by making tax obligations clear and fair
Example in Practice
Under the new law, road tax stickers previously issued at state checkpoints are no longer valid. Motorists should expect no stops or payments related to road taxes on highways. Enforcement agencies are monitoring compliance to ensure full implementation.
