According to my consulting accountant, Software license is considered as a royalty and therefore attracts 5% WHT , this came into effect as from august 2013.

Hi people,
From my understanding,WHT should only apply to consultancy service but not on software licence or subscription.
Software should attract only VAT, i bet
Has anyone ever encountered WHT on software of subscription.This is a point i would wish someone to clarify for me as well as share KRA doc on software taxation.I have not been able to get clear info and so I seek if anyone can share on the same.

regards,
Henry
