Agenda

The VAT SD channel is a mechanism through which SARS enables taxpayers whose VAT 201(s) have been selected for SARS verification, to electronically submit their VAT supporting data as an option to resolve the risk identified. i.e. no need to submit physical invoice unless specifically requested during the verification process.

If a taxpayer’s VAT201 is selected for verification, the taxpayer has the following options:

Submit a request for correction, note that this can only be done once during the verification process

Provide supporting documentation either via eFiling, e@syFile™ VAT or any SARS branch

Submit Supporting Data extracted from your accounting packages in a prescribed form and structure as specified in the VAT SD external BRS.

The VAT SD channel is not compulsory and will not have any impact on VAT vendors compliance status should they decide not to make use of it. Currently SARS has no intention to enforce VAT SD but in due time it may be compulsory.
