Dispute Admin Penalties (RFR)

We challenge SARS administrative penalties through remission requests and objections.

Why you need it

Why You May Need to Challenge a SARS Administrative Penalty

A remission request gives you a formal way to ask SARS to reconsider an administrative penalty after the underlying issue is addressed.

First incidence relief

SARS may remit a penalty for a first incidence of non-compliance if there were reasonable grounds and it has been remedied.

Exceptional circumstances count

SARS must consider remission where events such as serious illness or a disaster prevented compliance.

A formal route to challenge

If remission is refused, you can lodge an objection and then an appeal.

Fix the cause first

Remission generally requires the underlying non-compliance to be remedied.
