South Africa Payroll Deadline Calendar tells an employer what is owed to SARS and when, built for a Monday-morning what-is-due check. next_emp201_due applies the SARS rule (EMP201 paid within seven days after the end of the month of deduction, moved to the last business day before a weekend or public holiday) to a deduction month or finds the next one due. due_in_next_days lists every EMP201 date and EMP501 window opening or closing inside a look-ahead. emp501_windows returns the interim and annual reconciliation windows for the 2026 and 2027 reconciliation years with their status; emp501_penalty_estimate applies the published late-submission wording (1% of annual PAYE liability, 1% more for every month outstanding, up to 10%). sdl_liability_check applies the SDL test (more than R500,000 expected over 12 months, 1% of salaries). public_holiday_adjust and sa_public_holidays compute the South African public holidays from the Public Holidays Act rule as listed on gov.za, so weekend and holiday moves are exact; one-off proclaimed holidays can be supplied. Everything is computed locally from figures the caller supplies; nothing is stored, filed or paid. General information only, not tax advice.
Sources: Reference data from official sources (gov.za, sars.gov.za); every answer states its source, date and validity period.
