As we approach the end of October, JCD Recruitment & Admin Management Solutions reminds business owners to keep their tax and payroll responsibilities on track.
📌 1. INDIVIDUAL TAX RETURNS The deadline for non-provisional individual taxpayers who were not auto-assessed is 23 October 2026. Please note: provisional taxpayers have until 22 January 2027 to submit their 2026 individual income tax returns. Provisional tax payments have separate deadlines.
📌 2. EMP501 INTERIM RECONCILIATION Employers, don't forget your EMP501 Interim Reconciliation deadline: 31 October 2026! This submission covers the period 1 March to 31 August 2026 and requires employers to reconcile their payroll declarations, payments and employee tax certificates. Before submitting, remember to:
✅ Check that your EMP201 declarations and payments reconcile.
✅ Verify employee details and valid income tax reference numbers.
✅ Ensure your payroll figures and IRP5/IT3(a) certificates are accurate.
