Tanzania to Present 2026/27 Budget in Parliament on 11 June

The Government of Tanzania is set to present its 2026/27 national budget in Parliament on 11 June 2026. Finance Minister Ambassador Khamis Mussa Omar is expected to table the fiscal plan that will guide taxation, public expenditure and key national economic priorities. 49 trillion.

That budget prioritised infrastructure development, energy expansion, industrial growth, education and health services, and efforts to strengthen domestic revenue mobilisation. After the 11 June presentation, the budget will proceed to about seven days of parliamentary debate before lawmakers vote on its approval. The process sets the country's economic direction for the fiscal year ahead.

Households, businesses and investors are monitoring developments around the cost of living, employment creation and the pace at which economic growth translates into improved living standards, AllAfrica reported. Dar es Salaam based economist Abdullah Shyengi said expectations centre on how the budget will link economic growth with job creation.

"Tanzania has continued to invest in infrastructure and key sectors, but the key issue now is how these investments translate into jobs and improved incomes for citizens," Shyengi said.

He added that productive sectors capable of absorbing the growing labour force will be closely watched. Deloitte Tanzania produced a pre-budget analysis that noted pressure on household purchasing power despite macroeconomic stability. "Although economic growth has remained steady, rising living costs continue to affect real incomes and household consumption patterns," the firm stated.

It added that fiscal policy will need to balance revenue mobilisation with an investment environment that supports private sector expansion. PwC Tanzania, in its budget outlook, said government reforms in tax administration and digital systems have improved efficiency in revenue collection.
