🧾 Did you know you can potentially claim tax deductions for:
– Professional fees (consultants, advisors)
– Staff training and courses
– Marketing costs
– Accounting services (yes, including us!)

If it’s used to generate income, SARS likely allows it.
But you need the right structure, timing, and record-keeping.

Let’s help you optimise — and reWard your bank balance.

Tech purchases can be tax-smart too.
Buying a laptop, printer, or software for your company?

💻 These fall under Section 11(e) depreciation allowances or even 100% deduction under the Small Business Assets rules, depending on your business structure.

Let us assess:
- Is it better to buy in your name or the business?
- Should you expense it all at once or spread it over 3 years?
- Will this trigger a VAT benefit?

Let your next purchase pay you back — on paper.

Here’s what SARS says:
If the car is used for business, you may be able to:
🚗 Claim a capital allowance on the vehicle
⛽ Deduct running expenses
📉 Reduce your overall tax bill

But…
❗ The vehicle must be in the business’s name
❗ You must keep a proper logbook (split business/personal km)
❗ Luxury vehicle limits apply (passenger vehicles capped at R595,000 for depreciation)

We’ll show you exactly how to do this — without red flags.
