The tax landscape in South Africa has undergone significant changes over the past 10 years. Income tax has become more complex than ever before. An ever-increasing percentage of South African taxpayers resort to engaging the services of a Tax Practitioner in order to assist them in complying with the country’s tax laws.
The Tax Administration Amendment Act of 2012 played a pivotal role in professionalizing the role of Tax Practitioners. This legislation now mandates that Tax Practitioners register with recognized controlling bodies and with the South African Revenue Service (SARS). The aim is to ensure that tax practitioners possess the necessary qualifications and expertise.
Beyond Tax Practitioners, a solid grounding in taxation opens doors to careers in bookkeeping, accounting, financial planning, and tax law.
