Individual Income tax and Efiling Profile Registration?

If you exceed the tax threshold, then essentially you need to register as a taxpayer. Taxpayers must register for tax and submit their personal income tax returns via the sars website known as efiling. In order to submit your tax return, you would require a sars efiling profile. It is via this profile that you or your tax practitioner would submit the income tax return.

What information do I need to register for income tax?

• Valid South African ID
• Proof of Address

Where do I go to register my efiling profile?

When ready to register your efiling profile go to this SARS page for registration - SARS Efiling registration.

How do I get my income tax number?

To get your tax number SARS will automatically register you and issue you with a tax reference number.

Must I go to a SARS Branch?

Not always, it depends on the query. It is advisable to appoint a tax practitioner to help you to navigate the tax supporting documents and tracking.
