Debt Payment Arrangements
We apply to SARS on your behalf to pay your tax debt in manageable instalments.
Why you need it
Why You May Need a SARS Payment Arrangement
A SARS payment arrangement can help a taxpayer manage an eligible tax debt through agreed instalments.
Protect your compliance status
Having an accepted payment arrangement in place is part of how SARS assesses your debt compliance.
Meet SARS's criteria
SARS must be satisfied that your situation fits the criteria set out in the Tax Administration Act.
Returns come first
SARS only considers a payment arrangement once all outstanding returns are submitted.
