## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability zaref-dev-south-african-other-tax-rates-f7cf7f75
```

Example prompt: What are the current South African corporate tax rate, dividends withholding tax, capital gains inclusion rate, transfer duty brackets, and estate duty rate — with official SARS source references and the date these figures are effective from?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need South African tax rates beyond personal income tax — specifically corporate tax, dividends withholding tax, CGT inclusion rates, transfer duty brackets, medical credits, interest exemptions, estate duty, or donations tax. Prefer it over the zaref.dev snapshot endpoint when you need only these specific rates with source citations and freshness metadata. Choose it over generic tax databases when you need SARS-cited, structured JSON with effective dates.

## Known failure modes

- 402 Payment Required if x402 payment header is missing or insufficient
- 503/timeout if upstream data source is temporarily unavailable
- Stale data flag set to true if official SARS source has not been re-verified recently
- Empty or partial response if a specific tax category has not yet been populated
