Sales Tax Registration and Returns

Registration and return filing should reflect the business model, activity, premises, supply chain and invoicing record. The firm reviews whether the client’s transactions and records align with the registration and reporting position being adopted.

Notices and Audits

A sales tax notice may question registration status, supplies, invoices, input tax, output tax, withholding, records or compliance with a specific regime. The response should address the exact allegations and be supported by invoices, ledgers, bank evidence, returns, annexures and business documents.

POS and Electronic Invoicing

Digital invoicing and POS obligations are evolving and may apply differently according to notification, taxpayer category and business activity. The firm can assist with legal applicability, documentation and coordination; software configuration should be handled by an authorized or technically competent integrator where required.
