We’ve been getting flooded with inquiries lately about the SARS VAT registration process. If you’ve tried to register a company recently, you already know it’s not as simple as just clicking "Apply"!

To help clear the confusion, we’ve completely overhauled our VAT Registration Guide with up-to-date, transparent info for 2025.
We’ve included:
✅ A 4-step video series on prepping your eFiling profile.
✅ A detailed, step-by-step screenshot guide for the RAV01 form.
✅ The exact workaround to fix the facial recognition block.
✅ The "3 Phone Calls" rule you need to know about.
