The Timor-Leste Revenue Service (TLRS) is an independent agency within the Ministry of Finance.
The TLRS is responsible for administering the country 's Services Tax, Wages Income Tax, and Income Tax, as well as taxes payable in the area covered by the Joint Petroleum Development Area in the Timor Sea.
