Changing Bank Details to Home Country bank account



I am going back to India permanently. I have done eFiling this year, and the returns is credited to my SA bank account. I like to get next year's return to my Indian account. Can I change the bank details to my Indian Bank Account, so that next year returns would be credited to my Indian account. If yes, how can I change it? Can I change it via eFiling, or do I need to visit the SARS office before travelling back? What all documents are required? What is the procedure?

You should visit the SARS branch first and have them change your account details. For foreign accounts it would depend on the individual country so please phone 0800 00 7277 to find out the exact procedure.
