Zoho Finance Suite has been serving businesses in South Africa through its Global edition for many years. Now, we are launching a fully VAT-compliant South Africa edition that has been carefully developed to meet the needs and wants of South African businesses. This edition will help you simplify your business operations, fulfill your tax obligations, meet the standards of regulatory compliance, while you can focus on growing your business.
Accounting demystified with Zoho Books
An indispensable need of all South African businesses is VAT compliance. Along with our usual set of robust features, such as accounts payables, accounts receivables, online payments, purchases, sales, projects, integrations with Zoho apps and third-party apps, we have given special attention to ensure your business is always VAT-compliant at all levels.
Once you’ve enabled the VAT settings for your organization, you can create VAT-compliant sales and purchase transactions after adding customers, vendors, and items to your organization. VAT rates will be automatically populated for your sales and purchase transactions. Refer to this help document to learn more about VAT.
Stop worrying about maintaining individual VAT return files. You can now generate the VAT201 Return report in Zoho Books which follows the standards and specifications mentioned by the South Africa Revenue Service (SARS). You can also generate the VAT Audit Report file in Zoho Books and download it if necessary to help you with your audit process.
If your business is VAT-registered, you can enable the Domestic Reverse Charge and ensure that VAT is not bypassed at the supply chain.
We’ve gone a step further and also included an option for you to record any VAT penalties, in case you've missed your deadline to file your returns.
