Forgot KRA Password: What Next?

When you create an account on the iTax portal, the system automatically generates a password sent to your mail. You are required to log in to the portal using the credentials sent to your mail. Once you have logged in, you are given the option of resetting the password so that you can input the one you can easily remember.

If you do not change the iTax login credentials, you can rest easy because you can always find the password in your email. However, if you reset the password, you need to ensure that you remember it. But, if you cannot remember it, there is no need to panic as the tax.kra.go.ke password reset procedure is simple.

All you need is your KRA PIN number, the email you initially used to sign up for iTax, a security question and answer, and you are good to go. Here is the procedure you should follow if you forgot your iTax portal password.
