FAQ: By when should I pay SARS if I owe money on my Return?

If your assessment shows that you owe tax to SARS, it is important to pay us on or before the payment due date to avoid interest. The payment due date of the amount owed to SARS is displayed on the “Notice of Assessment” (ITA34).

The easiest way to pay SARS is to log into eFiling or SARS MobiApp and schedule the payment there.

You can also pay SARS at any branch of Absa, FNB, Nedbank, Standard Bank, and Capitec. SARS also accepts electronic funds transfers (EFT) using the standard drop-down list of pre-loaded beneficiary IDs provided by the bank. The beneficiary reference is the Payment Reference Number (PRN) listed on your notice of assessment (ITA34).

Please note that the information in this FAQ covers the majority of scenarios but it may exclude some other cases.
