DGI Reports 9.24 Billion Gourdes in Revenue for October 2026

Haiti's General Directorate of Taxes (DGI) has made public, in a rare move, a situation report presenting its monthly fiscal performance, according to Le Nouvelliste. In the document covering October 2026, the revenue-collection institution reported 9.24 billion gourdes, exceeding the forecasts set for the month. The publication comes at the start of the 2026-2027 fiscal year, and Le Nouvelliste raised the question of whether it marks a new stage in the tax administration's communication about its results.

Separately, the General Directorate of Customs (AGD) collected 11.5 billion gourdes during October 2026, compared with 11.3 billion gourdes in the same period a year earlier, an increase of 1.75 percent, Le Nouvelliste reported. According to the institution, this represents the highest level of collection ever recorded for a month of October. The customs report noted, however, that the progression came in a context marked by a sharp decline in revenue from petroleum products, which fell 72.7 percent in one year. The figures underscore ongoing challenges in public revenue mobilization, a theme highlighted in related coverage by the outlet.
