Edward Mwachinga

I am an advocate and co-founder of Viva Africa Consulting. I provide advice on tax legislation, principles and practice for a variety of clients including major telecommunications and manufacturing companies. Viva Africa Consulting LLP (VACL) was founded in 2009 and is a specialized legal and financial tax advisory firm providing the full range of tax services. My firm comprises some of the leading experts in East African taxation, all of whom have gained their experience from many years of practice with a ‘big four’ professional. Personally, I had worked for Deloitte and PwC for many years before I decided to set up Viva Africa Consulting.

I have been involved in various projects including tax due diligence in mergers & acquisitions, advising on taxpayer remedies and resolution of disputes with revenue authorities, training, assisting in tax refunds and providing general advice on market access, investment strategies and accessing investment incentives.

Aside from being a board member, I am also the Regional Coordinator of the WTS Global Africa Region, a group covering 27 African countries.

I am very pleased to be part of the team that makes WTS Global the tax network of choice for global clients.
