All Local Authorities (LA) have collected revenue to meet their budgetary obligations. However, the LA are unable to provide vital services to public as revenue collection is poor. Therefore, it is essential to identify determining factors of revenue collection in the LA.

The target population of the study was employees of the LA in Trincomalee. Random sampling technique was applied to select respondents from the various departments of LA. Data were analyzed by Univariate Analysis and ANOVA using SPSS. The findings of the study revealed that Assessment Tax is the main sources of revenue. Further, study shown that computerized applications as well as revenue monitoring and evaluation systems in revenue collection of LA were low level whereas revenue collection mechanism and complaint handling were moderate level in the LA.
