CAPE TOWN: South African Revenue Service (SARS) Commissioner Tom Moyane officially launched the agency’s specialized Small Business Support Desks.
According to Moyane, “the Small Business Desks, which are being rolled out at SARS branches around the country, were established as part of the Government’s commitment to support small and micro-sized enterprises and to make it easier for them to comply with their tax obligations.”
“With the launch of this service,” he added, “we are hoping to do our bit in the rolling back of the mortality rate of small businesses in South Africa.”
Information packs of small business material, as well as SARS’s specialized services, will be offered at the Small Business Desks, which will provide a one-stop shop for those with small business queries, including about business registrations, requests for tax clearance certificates, and general business tax issues.
