The National Treasury has projected a steady upward trajectory in Kenya's ordinary revenue collection over the next seven financial years, signaling an aggressive push to fund public services and national operations through routine internal streams.
According to the latest data, the government's regular income—primarily sourced from taxes, fees, levies, and other routine channels—is expected to grow consistently from the 2023/24 fiscal cycle through 2029/30.
For the 2023/24 financial year, ordinary revenue is recorded at 2.288 trillion, which is expected to climb to 2.42 trillion in the 2024/25 cycle. This momentum continues into 2025/26, with collections forecasted to hit 2.784 trillion, before approaching the three-trillion mark at 2.985 trillion in the 2026/27 financial year.
The medium-term outlook reflects a sharper acceleration. In the 2027/28 financial year, the state estimates ordinary revenue will comfortably cross the threshold to reach 3.39 trillion. This fiscal expansion is projected to persist into the subsequent periods, rising further to 3.658 trillion in 2028/29. By the final year of the current projection period in 2029/30, annual ordinary revenue collection is expected to peak at 3.957 trillion.
These projections underscore a structured growth path in domestic mobilization, highlighting the state's long-term fiscal planning as it seeks to scale up resources necessary for sustained public spending and routine administrative operations.
