Enhancements to ITR12 Return for Taxpayers Ceasing Residency and Non-Resident Taxpayers
SARS has made it easier for taxpayers ceasing residency and non-resident taxpayers with South African source-based income to file their 2025 tax returns by enhancing the ITR12 return. The enhancements aim to ensure the correct completion of the required fields in the return. A new interim process via SOQS now allows non-resident taxpayers to request the correct return format. A more permanent update to the Tax Return Wizard is expected in due course.
