KRA PIN Recovery โ Official Routes
Forgot your KRA PIN or iTax password? There is no need for any third-party "PIN checker" website โ KRA's own systems and official contacts recover it for you, safely and free.
1. Forgot the iTax password (the most common case)
- Go to the iTax login page: itax.kra.go.ke.
- Click "Forgot password" on the login screen.
- New credentials are sent to your registered email โ usually immediately.
- Log in and download your PIN certificate: Registrations โ your PIN details โ download PIN certificate.
2. Company PIN?
Company PINs live under the company's iTax account โ the director or an authorised person resets the company login and views the PIN there. Directors' own PINs appear under their individual accounts.
3. Use KRA's official self-service line
KRA's published self-service line can verify your identity (e.g. with your ID number) and help you recover your PIN details:
Phone self-service typically takes minutes.
4. Official email support
If your registered email or phone is outdated, KRA's published process is to email callcentre@kra.go.ke with your PIN and scanned colour copies of your original ID (or certificate of incorporation for companies) for data correction.
5. KRA offices
You can also visit a KRA office in person with your original ID. Check the official kra.go.ke website for office locations and current procedures.
