TaxCommand — SA SARS Tax & Compliance Console 1

Tax Command — SA Tax & SARS Compliance Console

It's the 24th. VAT201 is due tomorrow and you're scrolling through a year of bank statements trying to remember what was standard-rated, what was zero-rated, and what you can actually claim back. Provisional tax ambushed you again in August. You're not sure your PAYE figures are right, and SDL is a word you've been quietly ignoring.

That's what Tax Command fixes.

It's a South African tax and SARS compliance console that lives in Excel and Google Sheets. No login, no monthly fee, no accountant's portal you can't read. You type your numbers into the yellow cells — it does the rest, on the current 2026/2027 SARS tables.

What it handles:

VAT Ledger — Log every sale and purchase. VAT calculates at 15% automatically and your live net VAT position (what you actually owe SARS) sits on the dashboard. Built-in treatment guide — Standard, Zero-Rated, Exempt — so you classify each line correctly.

Provisional Tax (IRP6) — Enter your estimated annual income. It works out your tax on the 2026/2027 brackets, applies the primary rebate, and splits it into your Period 1 (August) and Period 2 (February) amounts.

PAYE · UIF · SDL — Enter each employee's gross salary. PAYE, UIF (capped correctly at R177.12/month) and SDL all auto-calculate — ready for your monthly EMP201.

Deductible Expenses — Log expenses, mark them deductible, and the total flows straight into your provisional tax, lowering what you owe.

SARS Deadline Calendar — Every 2026/2027 SARS deadline pre-loaded, with a live "days left" counter so VAT201, IRP6 and ITR12 never sneak up on you again.

What's included:

• Excel (.xlsx) + Google Sheets version — same engine, works on any device
• 273 formulas, 0 errors, verified
• Built on the 2026/2027 SARS brackets, rebates, UIF and SDL rules
• Plain-English instructions tab built in

How to use it — 60 seconds:

1. Open the Dashboard — that's your live tax position.
2. Type only in the yellow cells. Every other cell is a formula — leave it alone.
3. Log VAT in the VAT Ledger as you invoice and buy.
4. Enter staff salaries in PAYE for your EMP201.
5. Drop your estimated income into Provisional Tax for your IRP6 amounts.
6. Check the SARS Calendar weekly — the countdown does the worrying for you.

(Google Sheets users: if it asks to "Convert to drop-down chips," click DISABLE.)

This is a planning and management tool, not a SARS submission system. It gets your numbers straight and your deadlines visible — always confirm final submissions with a registered tax practitioner.

R399. Once-off. Yours forever. No subscription.

South Africa only — built on SA tax law, priced in Rand.
