New SARS MobiApp Guide for Tax Practitioners Now Available
SARS has just released a fresh, practical guide to help tax practitioners make full use of its upgraded SARS MobiApp—and it’s a game changer for handling personal income tax matters on the go.
Effective from 24 March 2025, the Tax Practitioner guide on the use of the SARS MobiApp walks practitioners through how to access client profiles, submit returns, check compliance status, make payments, and more—right from their smartphones.
Why It Matters
Gone are the days of being tied to your desktop for eFiling. The updated SARS MobiApp now lets tax practitioners:
Access and manage their tax practitioner portfolio
View and interact with linked client profiles
Submit ITR12 returns and manage auto-assessments
Track return progress via the built-in dashboard
View or request Tax Compliance Status (TCS) PINs
Make debt payments and request tax reference numbers
Book appointments or locate the nearest SARS branch
Even open a new estate case on behalf of a client
Getting Started Is Simple
To use the app, tax practitioners need:
A valid PR number and an active eFiling tax practitioner portfolio
The SARS MobiApp installed from the App Store, Google Play, or Huawei App Gallery
Their eFiling credentials to log in
A stable internet connection and up-to-date operating system
Once logged in, practitioners can view all their portfolios and switch easily between client profiles.
Pro Tip
Make sure your clients are correctly linked to your portfolio on eFiling—this is essential to access their profiles via the app.
