How this service works
Government reference data series
Output
A JSON object containing the country code, series name, current value (number for rates/wages, array of date-name objects for holidays), effective date, last confirmed date, unit, source name and URL, a staleness boolean indicating if the data is past its expected update cycle, and optionally a components array breaking down composite rates and an effective_rate representing the combined statutory levy total.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“What is the current VAT rate in Ghana? I need the full breakdown including any stacked levies like NHIL or GETFund.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://afriref.dev/v1/:country/:seriesWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need structured, sourced government reference data for African markets — specifically tax rates, wages, monetary policy rates, CPI, or public holiday calendars for the 11 supported countries. Prefer this over web scraping or general search when you need machine-readable, consistently formatted economic and regulatory data with source attribution and freshness signals.
Side effects
- Unsupported country code — only 11 African countries (ci, eg, et, gh, ke, ma, ng, rw, sn, tz, ug) are supported; returns error for others
- Unsupported series identifier — only 7 series are available (policy-rate, vat, minimum-wage, public-holidays, cpi, corporate-tax, income-tax)
- Stale data — endpoint returns data with stale:true flag when the value has not been confirmed within the expected update cycle
- Payment failure — x402 payment of $0.005 USDC not fulfilled, request rejected
- Network or upstream source unavailability causing delayed or failed response
