Tax Debt & Dispute

A Tax Debt Compromise isn't just about reducing your debt, it's about creating a sustainable path forward. For many taxpayers, repaying the full tax liability would mean sacrificing essential operations, liquidating critical assets, or facing financial ruin.

A Deferment Arrangement for Tax Debt is an agreement between a taxpayer and SARS that allows for the gradual repayment of outstanding tax liabilities over an extended period. This arrangement provides financial relief by preventing immediate enforcement actions such as asset seizures, garnishments, or legal proceedings.

If you have undisclosed income or outstanding tax liabilities, the Voluntary Disclosure Programme (VDP) at SARS offers an invaluable opportunity to resolve these matters proactively. Through the VDP, individuals and businesses can fulfil their tax obligations, minimise penalties, and gain protection from criminal prosecution, provided they act before any SARS audit or investigation begins.

An Advance Tax Ruling (ATR) is a system implemented by the South African Revenue Service (SARS) to provide taxpayers with clarity, consistency, and certainty regarding the interpretation and application of tax laws for proposed transactions. Through this system, taxpayers can obtain binding private rulings (BPRs) or binding class rulings (BCRs) that outline how SARS will apply tax laws to their specific situations.

If you disagree with the outcome of your objection to a South African Revenue Service (SARS) assessment or decision, you have the right to lodge an appeal. This must be done within 30 business days after receiving the objection outcome. A senior SARS official may extend this period by 21 business days if reasonable grounds exist, or by up to 45 business days in exceptional circumstances.

Disagree with a tax assessment or decision from the South African Revenue Service (SARS)? You can challenge it through a formal dispute process. This process follows specific rules outlined in the Tax Administration Act, 2011 (Chapter 9, Section 103) and applies to most taxes handled by SARS, except for customs and excise taxes.
