SA REVENUE SERVICES
According to independent research commissioned by SARS and the National Treasury, the average number of returns and submissions for a small business per year are:

  • 9 different statutory returns required,
  • Average of 36 submissions per annum.
In addition the average tax compliance and acccounting costs in respect of small businesses are:

  • An average of R7,030 pa to ensure that tax returns for income tax, provisional tax, VAT and employees’ tax are prepared, completed and submitted as required.
  • An average of R36,343 for a range of related services, including accounting services.
As a percentage of turnover, tax compliance costs range between:
  • 2.2% or R6 600 for businesses with a turnover of up to R300,000 a year and
  • 0.1% or R14 000 for businesses with a turnover around R14 million a year.
Tax compliance costs therefore tend to be regressive, especially for businesses with a turnover under R1 million a year.
