Johannesburg - The South African Revenue Service (Sars) will extend its operating hours later this week to allow taxpayers to meet payment deadlines, Sars said in a statement on Tuesday.
All branch offices will be open from 07:30 to 17:00 on Thursday and on Friday.
"Taxpayers are reminded that manual VAT returns and payments are due for submission on Thursday February 25 2010 and Provisional returns and payments on Friday February 26 2010.
"Sars urges taxpayers not to wait until the last day to make payments but to visit their nearest Sars branch office as soon as possible," the statement said.
Taxpayers could also use internet banking or e-Filing to make payments instead of going into a branch office.
