Medical Tax Credits

What is a Medical Tax Credit?

The medical tax credit, brought in from the 2013 tax year provides for a monthly credit against your tax owing to SARS. If you and/or your dependents belong to a medical aid then you will receive in 2025, a R364  (R364 in 2024) medical tax credit per month for the first two members and a further R246 in 2025 (R246 in 2024) per month for every other member or dependent on the same policy. The credit will be deducted automatically from your tax payable. This is different from the previous system where medical aid contributions were deducted against income.
