SARS has introduced eDNA as a security measure in order to minimise the risk of fraudulent transactions as well as to safeguard taxpayer information. This entails that your fingerprints will be captured and authenticated when visiting a SARS branch for certain services.
See eDNA Identity Security for more information.
The city of East London lies on the southeast coast in the Eastern Cape Province. The East London branch is located in Chiselhurst on the outskirts of the city, thus creating the opportunity to eliminate much of the traffic and hustle and bustle of the city. The branch is easily accessible by public transport, with a taxi route and a train station within walking distance from the branch. The branch has adequate parking space for taxpayers, and our knowledgeable staff are equipped to deal with taxpayers in various official languages, thus assisting taxpayers in a language of their choice. Although the branch is on the outskirts of the city, it is however within 5-10 minutes walking distance to the Vincent Park shopping centre.
