Cra01 Form – Fill Out and Use This PDF

Cra01 Form PDF Details

When confirming a residential or business address for tax or legal documentation, the CRA01 form is a critical piece of paperwork required by the South African Revenue Service (SARS). This document is used by individuals, partnerships, trusts, companies, and close corporations (CC) who need to validate their address details through a third party.

Who Needs to Complete the CRA01 Form?

• Individual taxpayers updating their residential address with SARS
• Business owners confirming a trading or registered address
• Trusts, partnerships, and close corporations (CC)
• Any taxpayer whose address is in dispute or requires official verification
• Entities undergoing compliance checks that require address confirmation

Information Required on the CRA01 Form

The form gathers personal and contact data from both the taxpayer and the third party confirming the address. The following details are required:

• Surname, first names, and initials of the taxpayer
• ID number, passport number, and country of issue, or taxpayer reference number
• Date of birth in CCYYMMDD format
• Full physical address including suburb or district, city or town, and postal code
• Home telephone number and contact email address
• Entity details including registered name, trading name, and registration number
• Third party declaration, capacity (such as owner, landlord, or property agent), and signature

Third Party Declaration and Relationship

The CRA01 form captures the relationship between the taxpayer and the third-party confirmant. Accepted capacities include owner, lessor, landlord, property agent, and other approved roles. By signing the declaration, the third party attests to the accuracy of the address and confirms the taxpayer resides or conducts business at that location.

If you regularly deal with SARS documentation, you may also need the SARS FIA 001 form for financial intelligence requirements or the SARS TCC 001 Tax Clearance Certificate for compliance purposes.
