Supporting Documentation: Maintain supporting documents for income, expenses, and deductions, such as invoices, bank statements, and contracts.
Tax Returns: Complete and submit the relevant tax return form (ITR14) for companies.
Tax Year End: Know the financial year-end date for your company, as this determines the submission deadline.
Estimated Tax: If applicable, submit provisional tax returns (IRP6) to estimate tax liabilities during the financial year.
Compliance with Deductions: Ensure all claimed deductions are compliant with tax regulations and supported by proper documentation.
Filing Deadline: Submit the tax return by the prescribed deadline to avoid penalties.

Company tax returns are financial documents filed with SARS that report a company’s income, expenses, and tax liabilities for a specific financial year. They ensure compliance with tax regulations and determine the amount of tax owed or any potential refunds.
Companies in South Africa must submit their tax returns by the due date determined by their financial year-end. Generally, the deadline for submitting the company tax return (ITR14) is within 12 months after the financial year-end. For example, if a company’s financial year ends on February 28, the tax return is due by February 28 of the following year. Additionally, provisional tax returns (IRP6) are due twice a year, with specific deadlines depending on the company’s year-end. It’s essential to check the SARS website for exact dates and requirements.
In South Africa, the standard corporate tax rate is 28% on taxable income for companies. However, small businesses with a turnover below R1 million may qualify for a reduced tax rate of 0% on the first R83,100 of taxable income and 7% on taxable income between R83,101 and R365,000. It’s important to consult with a tax professional like Taxleaders to understand specific rates and possible deductions applicable to your business.
