VAT agency and principals

The terms “ agent ” and “ agency ” are not defined in the Value Added Tax Act 89 of 1991 (VAT Act). The South African Revenue Service (SARS) has indicated in Interpretation Note 42 (IN 42) that it accepts that the common law relationship between the principal and the agent prescribes the value-added tax (VAT) consequences of this legal relationship. The general VAT rule is that where a person, acting as agent, supplies goods or services on behalf of a principal to a third party, the supply is deemed to be made by the principal and not the agent (section 54(1) of the VAT Act). Conversely, where a third-party supplier makes a supply to an agent acting on behalf of a principal, that supply is deemed to be made to the principal (section 54(2) of the VAT Act). In these instances, the principal and not the agent must account for VAT on the supplies.
