Payment terms depend on tax classification. If a valid IRP30 exemption certificate is provided, no employees' tax is withheld; an IT3(a) certificate with code 3617 is issued. Without a valid IRP30, PAYE is withheld at individual tax rates until the certificate is provided; an IRP5 with code 3617 is issued. This affects net payments received.

Complete the PAYE Questionnaire (Evaluation Pack A for companies/CCs/trusts or Pack B for individuals). Provide mandatory details: Income Tax Registration No., CO/CC/Trust Registration No., VAT Registration No., bank account details, and residency declaration. Sign the applicable appendices as determined by the question flow (e.g., Appendix 1 for employees, Appendix 8 for independent contractor). Failure to sign required affidavits will lead to PAYE withholding.

Bidders must complete either Evaluation Pack A (for companies/CCs/trusts) or Evaluation Pack B (for individuals). The classification tests include: Residence, Number of Employees (3+ full-time non-connected), Services by Connected Persons, 80% Income from one client, Place/Control/Supervision (more than 50% at Eskom premises), and the Dominant Impression Test (11 questions). The outcome determines the tax status and whether PAYE is withheld, and the correct IRP5 code (3601 or 3616).
