A number of new rules for resolving tax disputes with SARS have been implemented. Knowledge is power when it comes to taxation, says New rules for resolving tax disputes with the South African Revenue Service have been implemented, and will have a significant impact on both taxpayers and the revenue authority.
The new rules include an extension of time periods, amendments to the objection process, and updates to the appointment of Alternative Dispute Resolution facilitators.Under the new rules, if the timelines for various procedures are not already regulated by the rules, the parties can agree to shortened periods.A notice of objection must be delivered by a taxpayer within 80 days of the date of the assessment.
The 80-day period excludes the additional 30-day extension that a taxpayer may request on reasonable grounds, and exceptional circumstances may warrant an extension of up to three years.Under the new rules, a taxpayer may appeal on a new ground not raised in the NOO, unless it is a new objection against a part of the assessment not previously objected to.The facilitator must have appropriate tax experience and be acceptable to both SARS and the taxpayer.
It is essential to be aware of your rights and responsibilities as a South African taxpayer when it comes to taxation. Being informed of these changes and seeking advice when needed is crucial. Knowledge is power when it comes to taxation. Remember to exercise your rights and take the necessary steps to ensure a fair and just resolution of any tax dispute with SARS.24 encourages freedom of speech and the expression of diverse views.
