SDK will commence the process of working with you to determine your second provisional tax payment and to ensure compliance with SARS, from middle January 2018. In the meantime, here are a few factors to consider:
- Provisional tax is not a type of tax, it should rather be seen as a pre-payment of your income tax.
- It is highly recommended that the taxpayer should not submit an estimate which is less than the basic amount.
- Payments to SARS should be made by 26 February 2018 to limit the risk of payments be deemed late.
SARS PAYMENT METHODS
Please note that SARS no longer accepts payment per cheques. Alternative payment options are the following:
- Electronic Transfer (EFT)
- Making payment at your bank using the tax statement as proof
- E-Filing
Please note that banks will also not accept cheques as a method of payment to SARS.
