The standard VAT rate stayed at 15% this year, but the discipline around it has tightened significantly.

This means stricter interpretation-based audits, tougher refund verifications, and a push towards real-time digital reporting mean your VAT compliance must be flawless. A single mischaracterisation on a complex supply or capital project can swing the outcome of an audit.

You need advisors who understand the intricacies of the law and the reality of your business. With over a century of combined experience, we provide the clarity you need to stay compliant.

Ensure your VAT compliance is audit-ready.

Every business carries tax risk. The question is whether you know where yours is before SARS does.

SARS is using AI-driven risk profiling to select audit targets. Businesses that have not reviewed their tax positions recently are more exposed than they realise.

A CentaTax Tax Risk Review identifies your exposure across VAT, CIT, Employees Tax, and more, before it becomes a dispute.

Accepting your SARS auto-assessment without reviewing it is a decision. And it may be a costly one.

SARS does not know about every deduction you qualify for. Once you accept and the 23 October 2026 deadline passes, that return is final.

CentaTax reviews your assessment, finds every deduction you are entitled to, and submits a corrected return on your behalf.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Your return. Your money. Make sure it is right. Call us today.

We are seeing a significant increase in sophisticated phishing scams. These often arrive as an SMS or email claiming you have an urgent tax refund waiting, or threatening legal action over an unpaid settlement. They will ask you to click a link, update your banking details, or provide a credit card number.

SARS will never request your banking PINs, passwords, or credit card details via email or SMS. Genuine refunds are paid directly into the bank account linked to your secure eFiling profile, and all official correspondence can be verified within the eFiling portal itself.

If you are unsure about any communication claiming to be from SARS, let a professional verify it for you before you act on it.
