Monthly Accounting Services For Established Owner-Managed Businesses

Monthly bookkeeping and compliance for Johannesburg businesses — managed through a structured system with defined cut-offs, consistent month-end close standards, and proactive tracking. So your records stay SARS-ready, deadlines stay under control, and you always know where you stand.

Not sure where you fit? We’ll confirm the best plan after reviewing your last 2–3 months of activity.

Compliance Shouldn’t Create Pressure.

Most issues don’t come from one big mistake — they come from month-to-month inconsistency: missing documents, unclear handovers, and work that gets pushed “to later” until something becomes urgent.

The Monthly Compliance System was built to replace that with a structured monthly rhythm — so your records stay SARS-ready, deadlines stay controlled, and you stay consistently up to date.

What Does Your Company Need to Stay Compliant?

Keeping your bookkeeping up to date is only one part of managing your company’s accounting and compliance.

Depending on its registrations, your company may need work completed throughout the year.

Ongoing (Monthly Bookkeeping)

  • Bookkeeping and account reconciliations

  • VAT201 submissions if VAT registered

  • Payroll and EMP201 submissions if registered as an employer

Twice a Year

  • Two provisional tax calculations and IRP6 submissions

  • Interim and annual EMP501 reconciliations if registered as an employer

Once a Year

  • Annual financial statements

  • Company income tax return

  • CIPC annual return and beneficial ownership filing

  • Compensation Fund Return of Earnings if registered with the Compensation Fund

Not every requirement applies to every business. We review your company’s registrations and circumstances before recommending the correct package.

When reviewing an accounting quotation, confirm which monthly, twice-yearly and annual services are included and which will be charged separately.

How Our Monthly Compliance System Works

A simple rhythm — run the same way every month.

Collect → Check → Close → Comply → Confirm

  • Collect: Monthly checklist + cut-off date (consistent document handover process)

  • Check: We review for gaps and request missing items early

  • Close: Month-end close completed and records kept SARS-ready

  • Comply: Submissions managed where applicable (VAT / payroll)

  • Confirm: You receive confirmation the month is closed, up to date, and compliant

You’re not buying “accounting tasks.” You’re buying a monthly system that prevents avoidable compliance surprises.

Choose Your Monthly Accounting Package

Start with the package that matches your VAT status. Both packages combine ongoing monthly accounting with the standard annual company compliance services listed below.

Payroll can be added where required.

Your monthly fee is confirmed after reviewing your transaction activity, number of accounts, payroll requirements and overall complexity.

Payroll Services Add-On

Add payroll if you need monthly processing and statutory compliance managed alongside your Monthly Compliance System.

Payroll Add-On includes:

What’s included

  • Payroll processing and payslips

  • EMP201 preparation and submission

  • UIF/SDL handled where applicable

  • Interim and annual EMP501 reconciliations

  • Annual payroll compliance items within scope (where applicable)

How it fits into the system
Payroll is managed within the same monthly rhythm — with consistent cut-off dates, documentation standards, and compliance tracking.

Payroll pricing is based on the number of employees and payroll complexity.

Property Investors & Trusts

We also provide tailored accounting, tax and compliance support for property investors, trusts and multi-entity structures. Because these requirements vary, the scope is assessed and quoted separately.

Transparent Tiering

We use a tiering system to keep pricing consistent and transparent. Your tier is confirmed during onboarding based on monthly activity and complexity.

  • Tier A: 0–80 transactions/month

  • Tier B: 81–180 transactions/month

  • Tier C: 181–350 transactions/month

  • Custom: 350+ transactions/month (quoted)

Note: Tiering guides pricing; complexity factors (multiple bank accounts, multi-entity, portfolio/trust structures, heavy loan activity) may require a customised scope. If your volume changes materially over time, your tier may be adjusted to keep scope fair and delivery consistent.

Not sure which plan fits?

No problem — we’ll confirm the best fit after a baseline review. In most cases, we only need your last 2–3 months of activity to confirm your tier, VAT cycle, payroll requirements (if applicable), and the most efficient onboarding path.

What we check during the baseline review

  • VAT registration status and submission cycle (if applicable)

  • Payroll requirements (number of employees, pay frequency)

  • Average monthly transaction volume

  • Bank accounts, lending accounts, and operational complexity

  • Any backlog / catch-up work required

No Surprises Policy

We run the Monthly Compliance System with clear monthly cut-off dates and a consistent close process. If anything falls outside monthly scope, we quote upfront before proceeding — so there are no surprises in your compliance or your billing.

Out-of-scope work is quoted and agreed in writing before we proceed.
Some work is best handled as a once-off engagement. Where applicable, we quote clearly and agree in writing before proceeding.

Common examples include:

  • Historical catch-ups / backlogs / clean-ups (periods where records were not maintained)

  • SARS disputes and advanced casework, including objections/appeals, audits, verifications, and non-routine correspondence

  • Registrations, reinstatements, and structural changes, including CIPC changes, new registrations, deregistrations, shareholding changes, and complex amendments

  • Complex advisory, restructuring, and tax planning beyond routine compliance and standard reporting

  • Additional entities (each entity is scoped and priced separately)

  • Missing or unsupported records requiring reconstruction or extensive follow-up

  • Non-standard year-end complexity, such as group structures, high asset volumes, multi-currency activity, extensive loan accounts, or complex reconciliations (assessed after review)
