The Lagos State Internal Revenue Service (LIRS) has extended the deadline for filing of individual annual tax returns by two weeks, from April 1 to April 14, 2026.
The Executive Chairman of LIRS, Dr. Ayodele Subair, announced this via a statement issued on Monday, March 30.
Subair explained that the statutory deadline for filing of individual annual tax returns is March 31 every year.
He noted that the extension is intended to provide individuals with additional time to complete and submit accurate tax returns.
Subair stated that individuals must give priority to the timely filing of their annual income tax returns, noting that compliance should be embedded as a routine personal practice.

He also reiterated that electronic filing through the LIRS eTax platform remains the only approved method for submitting annual returns, as manual filings have been completely phased out.
Individuals were therefore required to file their returns exclusively through the LIRS eTax portal: https://etax.lirs.net.
Describing the platform as secure, user-friendly, and accessible, Subair advised individuals to ensure that their Tax Identification Number (TaxID) is correctly captured in their submissions.
