Common questions

What does SARS tax clearance mean for a tender?

SARS replaced the old paper certificate with a Tax Compliance Status PIN. You give the buyer the PIN and they check your status with SARS directly, seeing only whether you are compliant, not your tax affairs.

How do I get a Tax Compliance Status PIN?

Request it on SARS eFiling under Tax Status. It is free and issued immediately if your returns and payments are up to date. If you are non-compliant, eFiling shows you which returns or debts are the problem.

Can I still bid if I owe SARS money?

Often yes, provided you have an approved payment arrangement in place, which usually restores compliant status. What sinks bids is unfiled returns and unarranged debt discovered at award stage.
