Kenya Revenue Authority applications are made through its official e-recruitment system. KRA says vacancies are posted on its Careers page. Check that page and the job posting before you apply: the vacancy notice is the source for the role-specific deadline and eligibility conditions.
KRA says it does not charge a fee at application, shortlisting, interview or offer stage. Never pay anyone for a KRA job.
Start at the official KRA e-recruitment login page. Do not use a link sent in an unsolicited message.
| Step | What to do |
|---|---|
| 1. Register | On the e-recruitment login page, select Register. KRA says it will send an email that lets you confirm your email address and complete registration. |
| 2. Log in | Return to the login page and enter your username and password. The system opens the Applicant Cockpit after a successful login. |
| 3. Complete your profile | In Applicant Cockpit, open Candidate Profile, then My Profile. Follow the system instructions. KRA's guidance says to finish through Overview and Release and tick the checkbox to complete the profile. |
| 4. Find an opening | Open Employment Opportunities in Applicant Cockpit. Under Job Search, select Start to see available vacancies, then select a job posting to read it. |
| 5. Apply and submit | Select Apply on the vacancy. Complete every mandatory field, review and accept the Data Privacy Statement, then select Send Application Now. |
These steps come from KRA's job application guidelines. If registration email delivery is delayed, KRA's Careers page advises refreshing your email. The portal also provides password-change and password-recovery options.
There is no one set of qualifications published in KRA's general portal instructions. Read the individual job posting before applying. It is the place to confirm the specific education, professional qualification, experience, documents, closing date and any other mandatory criteria for that vacancy.
| What to prepare | What KRA's official guidance confirms |
|---|---|
| A working email address | Registration is completed through an email confirmation. |
| Your candidate profile details | You must create or update My Profile and complete its required fields before applying. |
| Vacancy-specific information and attachments | Check the job posting and the portal prompts. KRA's general application guide does not provide one universal list of certificates or other attachments. |
KRA describes itself as an equal opportunity employer and says it looks for people with the right attitude, willingness to learn and high integrity. Those statements do not replace the job-specific eligibility requirements.
KRA's recruitment-fraud notice says fraudsters may use messages to seek money or personal information. Verify an advert against the official KRA Careers page and apply through the official e-recruitment portal.
KRA says suspicious vacancy adverts or job offers can be reported to cic@kra.go.ke. The fraud notice was published in 2019, but the current Careers page also states that KRA charges no recruitment fee.

They depend on the vacancy. KRA's general application guidance explains the portal process but does not give one universal qualifications or documents list. Read the individual job posting and meet every mandatory field and requirement shown there.
No. KRA says it does not charge a fee at any recruitment stage, including application, shortlisting, interviewing or offer. Do not pay a recruiter or agent.
Check whether the vacancy appears on KRA's official Careers page and use the official e-recruitment portal. KRA says suspicious adverts or offers can be reported to cic@kra.go.ke.
KRA's Careers page advises refreshing your email if notification is delayed at the end of the registration process. If you still have a problem, use the contact route shown on the Careers page or portal.
