Services

Everything a South African business is legally required to get right.

Good accounting isn't a cost, it's an investment. We find what's holding the business back financially, then fix it — and keep it fixed.

CIPC

Company registrations

New (Pty) Ltd registrations, name reservations, director amendments, annual returns and beneficial ownership filings. Registered and compliant from day one.

TAX

Tax advisory & returns

Income tax, provisional tax, capital gains and dividends tax. We plan ahead rather than react — so there are no surprises in October.

VAT

VAT registration & submissions

Registration once you cross the R2.3 million threshold — or voluntarily from R120 000 a year — plus accurate VAT201 submissions every cycle. Input tax claimed, output tax correct.

PAY

Payroll & PAYE

Monthly payslips, EMP201 and EMP501 submissions, UIF and SDL. Fringe benefits and travel allowances treated correctly — the area SARS is auditing hardest.

AFS

Annual financial statements

Compiled to IFRS for SMEs, signed off and ready for the bank, a lender or a buyer. Management accounts monthly if you need to see it sooner.

ADV

Business advisory

Cash flow, planning, and whether you should be trading as a company at all. Practical answers from someone who has seen the numbers.

SHELF

Shelf companies

Registered companies ready to trade, with the tax, VAT or customs registrations already in place. See the three options below.

How it works

Three steps. Plain language.

STEP ONE

We look at where you actually are

A free first consultation. Bring whatever you have — even if it's a shoebox and three years of unopened SARS letters. We'll tell you honestly what needs fixing and what it will cost.

STEP TWO

We get you compliant

Outstanding returns submitted, penalties disputed where there are grounds, registrations brought up to date. You'll know exactly where you stand with SARS, usually for the first time.

STEP THREE

We keep it that way

Monthly bookkeeping, payroll and VAT run on a fixed schedule. Deadlines are ours to worry about. You get a call when something needs a decision.

2026 filing season

The dates that cost money if you miss them.

SARS runs the season in phases, and which one applies to you decides your deadline. Penalties start the day after it passes.

1 – 12 Jul 2026 Auto-assessments issued SARS sends these by SMS and email. Agree with it and you need do nothing — ITA34 follows within 24 hours. Check it first; the third-party data behind it is not always complete.
13 Jul 2026 Filing opens If no auto-assessment arrived by 12 July, you were not auto-assessed and must file yourself from this date.
23 Oct 2026 Non-provisional deadline Salaried individuals who were not auto-assessed. Miss it and administrative penalties begin immediately.
22 Jan 2027 Provisional taxpayers You are probably provisional if you earn rental, freelance, investment or business income outside a salary. Don't wait for January.
Penalties

R250 to R16 000 a month, compounding for every month a return stays outstanding — and they don't stop until it is filed and any liability settled. An outstanding return can also flag your SARS profile for verification, which slows every refund after it.

About VSI

We're a professional practice built on direct access. You deal with the person doing the work.

VSI Accountants works with South African businesses that have real compliance obligations — with or without a finance department. Where there is one, we work alongside it. Where there isn't, we fill that role.

Most of our clients come to us after something has gone wrong: a penalty notice, a VAT registration missed, a set of books that haven't been touched in two years. We're comfortable with that. Sorting it out is the job.

What we won't do is disappear between deadlines. You'll have a direct line to your accountant, and you'll get an answer the same day.
