SARS’s latest e-filing updates improve compliance but often add complexity for users unfamiliar with the system. Here’s how these updates impact your business and how Boatwright Consulting can simplify the process.


New Compliance Checks and Documentation Requirements

SARS has increased real-time compliance checks within the e-filing platform, including:

  • Validation Checks: Errors are flagged before submission, allowing businesses to correct issues immediately.
