Frequently Asked Questions
🤔 FAQs About Accounting & Bookkeeping in South Africa
1. Do I need bookkeeping if I’m a small business?
Yes! Bookkeeping helps you stay compliant with SARS and understand your business finances.
2. What’s the difference between accounting and bookkeeping?
Bookkeeping records daily financial data, while accounting interprets and analyzes that data into reports.

You can, but most business owners prefer hiring experts to save time and avoid costly mistakes.
4. When are financial statements required?
Financial statements are typically needed for tax submissions, funding applications, and business planning.
