Are you having challenges login into your KRA iTax account? Perhaps you’ve forgotten either your password or the email address you used to create the account. Well, in this post, we are going to show you how to change your email address on KRA iTax.
Your email address is the email you used when you applied for the KRA PIN. It is also the one KRA used to send your PIN certificate.
Sometimes, with changing terms of service by email providers, it may be difficult to recover your email address or even passwords, especially if you forgot to add your number or memorable security questions.

How to change your email address on KRA iTax
To retrieve your PIN certificate, you need to have a scanned copy of your original National ID card. Here is how to retrieve your PIN certificate.
Option 1 via Email
- Create a new email address from either Gmail or Yahoo mail
- login to your new email account and compose a new mail to callcentre@kra.go.ke with the subject “CHANGE EMAIL.“
- In the message body section, give the reason you require to change the email address and provide your KRA PIN to speed up the process of changing your email address.
- Remember also to attach the scanned copy of your National ID card before sending the mail.
Option 2: Social media
This is, instead, the most effective and convenient method. You don’t have to wait for a few days to get your reply.
If you’ve forgotten the email address, you used to sign up for KRA PIN, and you still have the PIN, tweet to KRA @KRACare or message them on their DM either on Facebook or Tweeter.
