Common questions from Startups & New Companies
Do I need to register a company or can I trade as a sole proprietor?
Both are legal. A Pty Ltd separates your personal and business liability and often looks more credible to clients and banks. A sole proprietorship is simpler but provides no legal separation of assets. We advise based on your specific situation.
What must I register for with SARS after incorporating?
At a minimum, Corporate Income Tax (CIT). If you take on employees, you must also register as an employer for PAYE. VAT registration is required once taxable turnover exceeds R1 million. We handle all three simultaneously.
When does my first tax return become due?
Your ITR14 (corporate tax return) is due 12 months after your financial year-end. For a company with a February year-end incorporated in 2025, the first return is due February 2026. We set up your tax calendar from day one so nothing catches you off guard.
