About RAD Determinations

When the Revenue Appeals Division concludes a hearing, a written determination is issued setting out the findings of fact, the applicable law and the decision of the commissioners. Published decisions are anonymised to protect the privacy of appellants. They are made available to promote transparency, support consistency in decision-making and contribute to the development of Jamaica’s tax jurisprudence. Decisions are published following a review period. Not all decisions are published — only those considered to have precedent value or public interest significance.
