New SARS Verification Checks

Aspirant and re-registering tax practitioners seeking registration with a Recognised Professional Body (RCB) should take note of recent updates to SARS’ external guidance on tax practitioner and verification. The registration framework operates on a dual model, requiring both SARS registration and affiliation to an RCB, supported by ongoing compliance, education, and fit-and-proper requirements.

SARS has introduced enhanced verification processes within an electronic workflow that includes automated compliance and risk screening. Where triggered, applicants may be required to submit supporting documentation within prescribed timeframes.

Verification timelines generally allow up to 21 business days for submission of documents, with shorter turnaround times of up to 5 business days for additional requests during the verification phase. Failure to respond timeously or adequately may result in delays or the application being declined.

For existing practitioners, deregistration due to non-compliance may also trigger verification requirements, in addition to completion of the SARS Tax Practitioner Readiness Programme.
Overall, SARS’ approach reinforces that registration is an ongoing compliance process rather than a once-off accreditation, with continued monitoring to uphold professional and taxpayer integrity.
