How does the data submission process work....
SARS has implemented a modernised 3rd party data platform on which bulk data submissions can be made from taxpayers to SARS for certain data types, e.g. VAT supporting data, Dividends Tax data, IT3 data. The vendor chooses the channel on which the data is going to be submitted. The vendor submits any number of files on the data submission channel for the tax period in question. Every file that is received is validated by SARS against the specifications defined in the VAT Supporting Data External Business Requirements Specification document. A response message is sent back to the vendor to inform the vendor of the outcome of the validation. Refer to How data authorisation is done for more information on the authorisation process. Once the data is authorised, the VAT supporting data is further evaluated by SARS systems.
