How do I add a SARS registered representative?

The documents you need and where to submit them on the SARS website.

To add a registered representative you will need:

  • Appointment letter signed by all directors (here is a template)

  • A clear copy of the registered representative's ID document

  • A clear photo of the registered representative holding their ID document and a note that reads "update my details" (here is an example)

  • Proof of the registered representative's residential address. This must be a municipal account or lease agreement.

  • A copy of your company registration certificate (COR 14.3)

  • Your personal SARS income tax number (you can request it here)

Once your documents are ready:

  1. Complete the form and upload your documents

  2. Submit

SARS will email you a confirmation with a case number — keep it in case you need to follow up. Processing can take up to 21 working days, and SARS will email you again once your request is accepted.

Rather have Govchain handle it? We prepare the paperwork, submit it, and follow up until it's confirmed. Appoint your registered representative with Govchain
