Kwa mujibu wa taarifa iliyotolewa na TRA kwa kuzingatia sheria ya ushuru wa bidhaa iliyofanyiwa marekebisho mwaka 2012 na kupitishwa kwa kanununi zake mwaka 2013, inamtaka kila mfanyabiashara wa kazi za muziki na filamu kuhakikisha kuwa bidhaa yake ina stempu ya ushuru wa bidhaa inayotolewa na TRA kabla ya kusambazwa. Taarifa hiyo imefafanua kuwa wasanii wote wa muziki wanapaswa kupitia hatua zote za awali kwa kuipeleka kazi yao BASATA, COSOTA kabla ya kuifikisha TRA kwa ajili ya kununua stempu/stika maalum ya utambulisho wa ushuru. Kwa wasanii wa filamu wanapaswa kupitisha kazi zao kwenye bodi ya filamu na COSOTA kabla ya kufika TRA kununua stika. Imeeleza kuwa zoezi hilo litafanyika kwa kazi zote za ndani na za nje ya nchi na kwamba zitatofautiana rangi tu za stempu/stika zitakazoitambulisha. -Filamu kutoka nje ya nchi-rangi ya kijani (green) -Muziki toka nje ya nchi –rangi bluu (blue) =Filamu zinazotengenezwa ndani ya nchi-Zambarau (violet) -Muziki wa ndani ya nchi –rangi ya pink
