@ Eric,
I did exactly that sometimes ago. Actually, I went to KRA and they told me to send and email to controlroom@kra.go.ke, (yet I was there and they could have done it as I waited).
It's about two months and no response as yet.
I got my company's PIN manually( before they introduced the ITMS) so I only needed the tax obligation to be included in the existing PIN.
I'm waiting for someone from KRA to help me out.
@ Solomon
VAT certificates are being phased out. Your online PIN certificate contains all the tax obligations that relate to you. Therefore if your registering as a new taxpayer using the online system you should select the VAT obligation, however if you are an existing taxpayer your obligations will appear automatically. If you notice that the tax obligation is not appearing on the certificate, contact the nearest KRA office or send an email to controlroom@kra.go.ke with your PIN, REGISTERED NAME and a small mesaage requesting for the obligation to be added to your certificate.

Unless the law changed, VAT is a requisite for many businesses here in Kenya. As long a your business is registered as a Company Limited by either shares or guarantee, it must have a VAT certificate.
@ Ann, who told you this?
I know there are some guys from KRA on this forum and they can provide us with sufficient answers on this issue.
I also have a problem with getting a VAT certificate through KRA ITMS.
