Timing Is Everything
Let’s break it down so you don’t miss your window:
| Taxpayer Type | Tax Season Runs | Voucher Deadline Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Non-provisional taxpayers | 1 July – 30 Oct 2025 | Submit before October to avoid penalties |
| Provisional taxpayers | 1 July – 30 Jan 2026 | Submit before Jan 2026 to stay penalty-free |
Yes, your voucher is valid for 12 months from the day it’s issued—but if you submit after tax season, you might get slapped with a late submission admin penalty from SARS. So use it early, submit on time, and keep your refund (not the fine).
Non-Provisional vs Provisional Taxpayers
- Non-provisional taxpayers make their contributions to SARS via PAYE deducted off their paycheck and only have to submit an income tax return (ITR12) for each tax year.
- Provisional taxpayers are people who earn income other than a salary / remuneration on which no income tax has been deducted/withheld.

✅ Can be used on any of TaxTim’s ITR12 services: Lite, Smart, or Ultra
