Physical visits to branches
No physical visits to branches will be allowed without making a booking first. The booking request will determine the nature of the interaction with SARS. We continue to service taxpayers through our virtual channels:
- Electronic Channels (eFiling, Mobile App, Email)
- Virtual Branch Channel (Video/Teleconference).
Bookings may be made via the Make an appointment system or the SARS MobiApp.
You will be contacted after the booking was requested to advise you of the next step.
