An IRP5 tax certificate is issued by your employer to confirm all your income, expense and tax details for both you and SARS. This is used to specifically complete your income tax return for that specific year.

Your employer is obliged by law to issue IRP5 certificates after payroll reports have been submitted to SARS.
