To get your SARS (South African Revenue Service) tax number online, you can follow these steps:
- Visit the SARS eFiling website: Go to the official SARS eFiling website by typing “https://www.sarsefiling.co.za” into your web browser.
- Register for eFiling: If you haven’t registered for eFiling before, click on the “Register” button and follow the instructions to create a new profile. You will need to provide your personal information, contact details, and create a username and password.
- Log in to your eFiling account: Once you have registered and activated your eFiling profile, log in to your account using your username and password.
- Access “My Details”: After logging in, you should see a dashboard or menu. Look for an option called “My Details” or something similar and click on it.
- Verify your personal information: In the “My Details” section, you will find your personal information. Verify that the details are correct and up to date. If any information is incorrect or missing, update it accordingly.
- Request your tax number: Within the “My Details” section, there should be an option to request your tax number. Click on that option and follow the prompts to submit your request.
- Wait for confirmation: After submitting your request, you may need to wait for SARS to process it. They may contact you for further verification or request additional documents. Keep an eye on your eFiling account, email, or SMS notifications for updates from SARS.
- Receive your tax number: Once SARS has processed your request, you will receive your tax number through your chosen communication channel (e.g., email or SMS).
Remember, the process may vary slightly, and the options available on the eFiling website could change. If you encounter any difficulties or have specific questions, it’s best to contact SARS directly for assistance.
