Registering as a SA taxpayer

By Marc Sevitz · Updated

Hello Tim!

I'm a foreigner living in SA on a relative visa, with my spouse. I would like to get a business endorsement on my visa.
1. At this stage, do I need to register as an income tax payer only?
2. How long will it take me to get the taxpayer's number from the day of submission?

Please, let me know.

Many thanks!

You do not need to register yet as you are not working in SA. Once you do register it will take up to 10 working days.
