The Sars statistics for 2022 show who pay the most tax: individuals who pay personal income tax and VAT and corporates. Personal income tax contributes 35.5%, VAT 25.0% and corporate income tax 20.7%, comprising 81.2% of total tax revenue collections.

“After the 2008/09 global financial crisis, it took tax revenue collections several years to recover to pre-crisis levels as a proportion of income and consumption. The tax-to-GDP ratio moderated from 23.8% in 2019/20 to 22.3% in 2020/21, followed by an increase to 24.9% in 2022.Sars says by 31 March 2021, the personal income tax register had grown by 4.1% on an annual basis to 23.9 million individuals. For the 2018 tax year, the number of individuals expected to submit income tax returns was 7.1 million, but this count decreased to 6.8 million for 2020 and then to 6.4 million for 2021, due to the increase in the threshold for submission of returns.

Personal income tax, geographic, demographic and other analysis of the assessments of the taxpayers who had been assessed as at the end of August 2022 for the 2021 tax year showed these interesting results:726 663 assessed taxpayers lived in the Johannesburg Metro and were taxed on an average taxable income of R446 7392 859 926 of assessed taxpayers were maleAssessed taxpayers had a combined taxable income of R1.8 trillion and tax liability of R388.1 billion.

Although individuals comprised 14.8% of active VAT vendors, they only contributed 2.3% of domestic VAT payments and received just 1.2% of VAT refunds.
