Product Description

A Tax Directive is a crucial document issued by SARS that authorises an employer or fund to deduct income tax at a specific rate, different from the standard PAYE tables. This service is essential for individuals receiving specific types of income, such as retirement fund withdrawals, lump sums from provident or pension funds, severance packages, or certain annuity payments, where standard tax rates may not apply. By securing a Tax Directive through My Accountant, you ensure accurate tax deductions, prevent over or under-payment, and maintain full compliance with SARS regulations, saving you potential future headaches and administrative burden.
