Background of the Study
Taxpayer perception plays a crucial role in shaping tax compliance behavior and public trust in the tax system. In Dass LGA, taxpayers often feel burdened by the practice of double taxation, where they are subjected to taxes from both the local and state governments. This perception of unfair taxation can undermine public trust in the tax system and discourage tax compliance. This study aims to explore taxpayer perceptions of double taxation in Dass LGA and understand how these perceptions influence compliance and attitudes toward the local tax system.

This perception of double taxation can lead to resistance to tax payment and a lack of cooperation with tax authorities. This study will assess how taxpayers in Dass LGA view double taxation and how these perceptions affect their compliance behavior.
