In South Africa, the IRP5 is a tax that applies to capital gains and income from shares.

IRP5 stands for Income Tax Relief (Income Tax Act) 5. It is a tax that applies to capital gains and income from shares. The IRP5 can reduce the amount of taxable income subject to the normal rates of income tax.

The IRP5 form is a provision of SARS. It is a form that all employers should submit to the SARS on behalf of their employees.

This form is used to provide information about the employee’s tax status for the year. It also provides information about allowances and deductions that the employer has made on behalf of the employee during the year.

The IRP5 has five parts:

1) Taxpayer details

2) Employment details
