Prices indicative and quoted in ZAR, excluding VAT. Transaction-volume tiers are guidelines - every quote is tailored after a short scoping call. Additional employees, entities or filings (e.g. trust returns, customs, SARB) are priced as add-ons. For anything not listed above, request a quote and we'll scope it with you.
Add-ons
Anything not on the table.
Trust returns (IT12TR), CIPC annual returns, BO declarations, share-register maintenance, voluntary VAT registration, beneficial-ownership filings, SARB approvals and SARS objections / appeals are all available as fixed-fee add-ons.
Backdated catch-up work - outstanding returns, prior-year reconstructions and SARS penalty remissions - is quoted separately after a short diagnostic.
Frequently asked
- Is there a setup fee?
- Onboarding is included for clients starting clean. Where there's a migration or catch-up component (prior-year clean-up, software switch, SARS arrears) we quote a one-off setup fee after scoping.
- Can I move between packages?
- Yes. Upgrade or downgrade at the start of any month - no lock-in, no penalty. We re-quote when employee headcount or transaction volume changes materially.
- What happens if I exceed the transaction limit?
- We flag it at the next month-end. If it's a one-off, we absorb it. If it's the new normal, we move you up a tier from the following month so pricing stays predictable.
- Do you offer once-off engagements?
- Yes - individual ITR12 returns, single-period AFS compilations, VAT registrations and SARS dispute work are quoted as fixed once-off jobs. Ask us for a quote.
