  1. 1. Ensure that the entity is **subscribed** **as an MPRR taxpayer** with SARS. If the entity is not yet subscribed for MPRR but already registered for any another tax type and has an existing eFiling profile, the registered representative can initiate a MPRR subscription by using the [Registration, Amendments and Verification (RAV01) online form on eFiling](https://www.sarsefiling.co.za/);

  2. 2. If the entity is already subscribed for MPRR but does not have an existing eFiling Profile, the registered representative can create an **eFiling account/profile;**

A deregistration cannot be finalised if your tax records are not up to date. Refer to these MPRR FAQs: - - - [What do I do if I no longer qualify for Mineral and Petroleum Resource Royalties – how do I request a deregistration?](https://www.sars.gov.za/faq/faq-what-do-i-do-if-i-no-longer-qualify-for-mineral-and-petroleum-resource-royalties-how-do-i-request-a-deregistration/) - [What are the requirements for SARS to process and finalise a MPRR deregistration request?](https://www.sars.gov.za/faq/faq-what-are-the-requirements-for-sars-to-process-and-finalise-a-mprr-deregistration-request/) - **July 2022 – Small Business Exemption in terms of Section 7 of Mineral and Petroleum Resources Royalty Act No. 28 of 2008** MPRR taxpayers that qualify for the Small Business exemption must  answer “yes” to question 4 on the MPR3 return for the exemption to reflect on the return. ## Who should register for MPRR? The following person/entity must register for MPRR: - Any person/entity that holds a prospecting right, retention permit, exploration right, mining right, mining permit or production right or a lease or sublease in respect of such a right; or - Any person/entity who wins or recovers a mineral resource extracted from within the Republic. ## What steps must I take? The below steps will assist taxpayers to register for MPRR, activate the eFiling profile and update master data.  **Step 1 – Ensure the entity is registered with SARS as a taxpayer:** To register with SARS for the first time and you do not have a tax number, you must do an entity registration at a SARS branch. - Refer to the [Guide on how to complete the Registration Amendments and Verification Form](/wp-content/uploads/Ops/Guides/GEN-REG-01-G04-How-to-Complete-the-Registration-Amendments-and-Verification-Form-RAV01-External-Guide.pdf) - Refer to MPRR FAQ – [I want to register for MPRR, what must I do?](https://www.sars.gov.za/faq/i-want-to-register-for-mprr-what-must-i-do/) **Step 2 – Ensure the entity is subscribed for MPRR as a tax type:** The entity will be able to subscribe to MPRR on eFiling through completion of the [Registration, Amendments and Verification (RAV01) online form’s MPRR section on eFiling](https://www.sarsefiling.co.za/), or by visiting any SARS Large Business Centre.

  10. 1. The MPRR registration option is under the “Maintain SARS Registered Details” Menu Option;

  12. 3. Every registrant will be issued with an “814XXXXXXX” MPRR account number. **Step 3 – Ensure the entity has a Registered Representative:** All MPRR taxpayers must have a **registered representative**. A registered representative is a person who is appointed with full rights to act on behalf of another legal entity (e.g. Companies, Trusts, etc.), often Public Officers, Accounting Officers, or administrators, etc. If a legal entity has more than one registered representative, then one must be nominated as the official “representative person” and registered with SARS.
