Services
Company and provisional tax
We work out provisional tax estimates that are close enough to avoid penalties, file your company's ITR14, and sit down with you before year-end to look at what you can still change.
What is included
- Provisional tax (IRP6) estimates and submissions twice a year
- Company income tax returns (ITR14) and trust returns (ITR12T)
- Turnover tax for micro businesses, where it suits you
- A pre-year-end planning meeting with the numbers in front of us
- Dividends tax declarations
- Tax clearance (Tax Compliance Status) pins for tenders and banks
How it works
Step 1
Estimate
Before each IRP6 deadline we look at your year to date and agree an estimate with you.
Step 2
Plan
About two months before year-end we meet to look at timing of expenses, assets and retirement contributions.
Step 3
File
Once the financial statements are signed off, we prepare and file the ITR14.
Step 4
Keep compliant
We watch your SARS profile so a missing return or debt does not block your tax clearance.
FAQs
Company and provisional tax: common questions
Who has to pay provisional tax?
Anyone who earns income that is not taxed through a payroll, such as business, rental or freelance income, unless it is very small. Companies are always provisional taxpayers.
What happens if my estimate is too low?
SARS can charge an underestimation penalty on the second payment, plus interest on the shortfall. A careful estimate and a top-up payment avoid most of it.
Can you get my tax clearance sorted quickly?
If your returns and payments are up to date, a Tax Compliance Status pin usually takes minutes. If not, we fix what is outstanding first.
Thirty minutes, no charge, no pressure.
