The money that the Government uses to manage our country, provide education, health facilities, to fund police and the justice system, to build roads and infrastructure, comes partly from the taxes and other revenue collected by DCIR.
INLAND REVENUE RETURN AND DEBT COLLECTION SECTION
Who are we?

Inland Revenue applies a functional model to administer the tax and licensing laws. A key section is the Return and Debt Collection Section. The section is organized into segments – these are: · Very Large and Large Segment · Medium Segment · Small and Micro Segment
|
What do we do?
 |
The section is responsible for collecting overdue tax and licencing payments and returns.
It does this by firm and fair application of the range of collection powers that are provided for in the Tax Administration Act no.37 of 2018.
|
What are our objectives?
 |
The section manages the collection of outstanding payments and returns.
The goal is to reduce debt and the number of outstanding returns. |
Payment problems?
 |
If you anticipate that you will not be able to make a required payment or file by the due date you are encouraged to contact us prior to the due date.
In most cases payment plan arrangements can be agreed. |
Are there penalties?
 |
Yes. Be aware that there are significant penalties and interest that will be imposed on late payments and late filing. It is better that you talk to us if you are not able to pay or file by the due date.
VAT registered persons are reminded that the VAT they collect is to be held in trust – it should not be treated as a normal debt or liability.
