3.8.8 Refusal of voluntary registration
A person will not qualify to register as a vendor if that person does not fall within the aforementioned categories. In addition, if only exempt supplies or other non-taxable activities are carried on, that person will not be conducting an enterprise for VAT purposes and will not be able to register. The Commissioner must be satisfied that the person applying for voluntary VAT registration meets the following requirements: • Keeps proper accounting records. • Has a fixed place of business or abode in South Africa. • Has a South African bank account. • Has not previously been registered as a vendor under VAT or General Sales Tax (GST) and failed to perform the duties of a vendor. In the event that any of the above requirements are not met, the Commissioner may refuse the registration. 3.8.9 How to register Application for registration as a vendor must be made on form VAT101 with supporting documents at a SARS office (via virtual, audio or walk in appointment made via the SARS website) or on SARS eFiling, within 21 business days of becoming liable to register. The reference guide, 75 which is available on the SARS website, will assist in completing the VAT101 form. See the VAT-REG-02-G01 – Guide for Completion of VAT Registration Application Forms – External Guide. A vendor that has several enterprises/branches/divisions which will operate under one VAT registration number should register in the area where the main enterprise/branch/division is located. A non-resident supplier of electronic services must complete form VAT 101 and email it to eCommerceRegistration@sars.gov.za together with the supporting documents (see VAT- REG-02-G02 – VAT Registration Guide for Foreign Suppliers of Electronic Services). Once successfully registered for VAT proceed to register on SARS eFiling, which will enable electronic submission of returns and make VAT payments from outside South Africa. 74 See the regulations issued under section 23(3)(b)(ii) and 23(3)(d) of the VAT Act in Government Notices R446 and 447 respectively, which were published in Government Gazette 38836 of 29 May 2015. 75 External Guide: Guide for Completion of VAT Registration Application Forms (VAT-REG-02-G01). Tax Guide for Small Businesses (2020/2021) 60 Once registered for VAT a Notice of Registration will be issued. A VAT Notice of Registration can be requested and obtained on SARS eFiling by registered e-Filers. A taxpayer can also confirm if their registration has been processed by entering their details under “VAT vendor search” on the SARS website. Allow at least 21 business days for processing of the application. Where no risk is identified SARS will issue the VAT number immediately. If the vendor is registered on SARS eFiling the Notice of Registration is issued on SARS eFiling or sent to the email address provided on registration, or posted to the postal address provided on registration. The SARS contact centre can be contacted for a copy of the Notice of Registration. An authorised registered tax practitioner may make the application on behalf of the applicant. In such cases, the application must be accompanied by the power of attorney. Download 0.78 Mb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
