Introduction

SARS has pushed through several e@syFile updates since late 2025. Some of these changes are mandatory from the 202602-reconciliation period. If you miss them, your PAYE submissions will fail.

This webinar informs you about what has changed, why it matters, and what you need to action right now. It will also provide you with an opportunity to ask your questions and get answers directly from SARS officials.
