TaxTim says: 23 January 2017 at 11:28 Your company will need to pay tax at a rate of 28% on its overall profit for the year. You can work out the profit by deducting all business expenses from the company's sales amount. Remember too, that the salary you pay yourself will also be a business deductible expense. Assuming you draw a salary, you will need to register the company for PAYE and UIF too. You will need to register the company for provisional tax and pay tax twice a year on the company's estimated profit. |
