Hi, thank you for this! I wanted to find out: If I am 90% service based what are my options? I can't see how registering for VAT would be in my best interest as a small business owner? I won't be able to claim back much. Our pricing is also already at the higher end of the market and upping it to cover the VAT would possibly price us out of the market. Do you have any advice for me? I want to operate within the law of course and still pay what I need to to SARS but would like to also understand things better. I currently have a team of makeup artists who contract out to me (not employed) and then I also have an Academy

Thank you for your video, very informative. Do you have a video regarding Insurer tax invoices with broker fee etc and what is VAT / Zero Rated.

[@SAAccountingNetwork]

Unfortunately not, that is quite a specialized field

Hi im in the vegetation management services and have a contract that has been awarded in 2020. now my business runs mainly on petrol and diesel during cutting of grass, the rice of petroleum products has increased dramatically since then and we have been running at a loss since. what happens then if we are cannot pay VAT as the money is used to cover losses and other over head expenses?

[@mrgrehan9981]

do the first person in the chain not pay any vat? surley they dont get their stuff for free with out vat

[@SAAccountingNetwork]

Yes, so if you are a farmer, miner or fisherman you cant claim input vat as you are not buying anything, but the expenses you incur to produce the products you can claim on, like machinery and operating expenses

[@Synergy_World]

Can i take the 15% to use it to do something which will give me more money?then pay back the 15%

[@SAAccountingNetwork]

In theory yes, but when they come knocking on your door you must have it ready!

[@eduexplo4110]

I supply goods to government departments and I now want to register for VAT so I can open accounts with distributors/manufacturers and buy directly instead of the retail stores. Is it wise to register for VAT the same entity I use to supply or it's best I have a separate entity for supplying and different one for buying from distributors/manufacturers?

[@SAAccountingNetwork]

I personally would keep operations as simple as possible, so my recommendation would be to do it through one company

[@cheripitout3273]

Can you tell me about import tax

[@SAAccountingNetwork]

That is quite a specialized field, best to chat to your accountant

[@mamaribequeen5569]

Sir Let say I registered for VAT and the first two months of doing return I dnt make sales but I've got monthly expenses is SARS going to change me? If so why would they charge me and how much will it be and how is it calculated? Thank you. 🤝
