FISA received the following communication from SARS:
Dear Valued Stakeholders
With reference to the enclosed email and subsequent engagements, I wish to thank you for your patience in waiting for SARS to respond to your various queries on the new date for the proposed trade testing.
Pursuant to high–level internal engagements, implementation dates across the entire SARS project spectrum were changed, which inter alia included changes to the timelines for the IT3(t) project.
Herewith the link to the SARS webpage where you can read more about the new trade testing dates for IT3(t) – Third Party Data Submission Platform | South African Revenue Service (sars.gov.za).
Closer to the time, we will also schedule a follow–up system readiness engagement to ensure you will be ready for the trade testing.
Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any further queries in the meantime.
With warm regards
Karin Smit
