The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) yesterday placed what it called a non-compliance sticker on the premises of the embattled Integrated Logistics Services (INTELS) in Onne Rivers State.
While denying earlier rumours that it sealed the office of Intel, the FIRS) denied shutting INTELS office over tax evasion.
In a statement, FIRS said: “What we did was that our team pasted a non-compliance sticker on the company’s premises.
“Such stickers are always pasted on the premises of companies that have not been complying with the company’s tax obligations: (Value Added Tax Act Cap VI, and Companies Income Tax, CIT Cap C21, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2014, & Other Tax Laws.
“The non-compliance stickers are routine. We did not seal nor close the company. INTELS is free to carry out IRS operations. It is not a distrain sticker.”
