You can either view it on eFiling or you can check your IRP5. Alternatively, please call SARS on 0800 00 7277.

Thank you. Do I need to be registered for eFiling in order to obtain my tax reference number?

No, but you need to have been registered with SARS for a tax number or your employer should have registered for you.
