About the webinar

Martin Naidoo will give you information to help you stay compliant with tax obligations as a freelancer. The facilitator will explain how the tax system works, what level of commitment it required from you, and how to prepare and submit your tax records for the 2025–2026 filing period, paying special attention to provisional tax. You’ll come away better informed about SARS eFiling processes, the income that must be declared and the expenses that can be claimed and the submission of the provisional tax return. If you have someone who assists you with your tax obligations, SARS will provide you with information on how to ensure you are working with a registered tax practitioner.
