How to Get a SARS Refund for Small Businesses explains small-business tax. In easy-to-understand language, and with many practical examples that will allow those who have never studied the subject to understand tax rules quickly and easily, this book provides aspiring entrepreneurs with extra confidence to take that first step on their business adventure, while helping current business owners gain a better understanding of how their business operates. How to Get a SARS Refund for Small Businesses covers different types of tax that a small-business owner may encounter, including income tax, VAT, pay-as-you-earn (PAYE) and dividends tax. It also details how different types of entities are taxed, such as a private company compared to a sole proprietor, and can assist business owners in deciding whether they should establish a sole proprietorship, company or partnership. While the book aims to bridge the current education gap that exists for entrepreneurs and small-business owners who were not taught about tax in school or at university, it will also assist students who are studying entrepreneurship courses at college or university.

Taxpayers often pay over more to the Receiver than required, and nowhere is this more evident than in the payment of Value Added Tax. There are thousands of VAT vendors in South Africa who are obliged to prepare a VAT return every two months. On the face of it, the process is very simple: record the VAT paid in respect of producing your product or service, subtract from this the VAT received in respect of your product or service, and pay the balance over to the Receiver. But in practice it is rather more complex, as certain rules apply to what you can and cannot claim as a legitimate amount, and on imports and exports related to your business. Tax consultants, who service several returns at a time, rush through the work, with the result that large amounts often get overlooked through ignorance or haste and millions of rands go unclaimed, or are paid over to the Receiver unnecessarily. But help is now at hand with The VAT Handbook, everyone’s essential guide on all matters concerning this tax.
