Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a SARS debt write off?
A: It’s a legal process where SARS agrees to cancel tax debt that is irrecoverable or uneconomical to pursue, typically due to the taxpayer’s financial hardship.
Q: Who qualifies for a SARS debt remission?
A: Individuals or businesses who can prove that full or partial payment is impossible and unlikely to change in future. Supporting documentation is critical.
Q: Will SARS write off interest and penalties too?
A: In many cases, yes. SARS may write off part or all of the interest and penalties, along with capital, depending on your circumstances and supporting case.
Q: Is a debt write off the same as a compromise?
A: No. A compromise is a negotiated settlement (once-off payment); a write off is a total cancellation due to irrecoverability, based on SARS’s discretion.
