A SARS compromise is a legal process available under Sections 200 to 204 of the Tax Administration Act (TAA), allowing qualifying taxpayers to negotiate a reduced settlement amount with SARS for outstanding tax debt under specific circumstances.
The Benefits
A compromise application may allow taxpayers to:
- Reduce the total amount payable to SARS
- Settle debt over time
- Avoid aggressive collection action
- Improve cash flow
- Restore compliance status
- Prevent further legal enforcement action
The compromise process is typically considered where taxpayers cannot reasonably settle their full tax debt due to financial hardship or exceptional circumstances.
