06 — Common questions

Before you get a quote.

Practical questions business owners and individuals ask before switching to MAPD.

How long does onboarding take?
Typically 1 – 2 weeks from signed engagement letter. We handle the SARS tax practitioner linking, CIPC director changes where needed, cloud accounting access and historical data migration. You'll have a clear checklist and a single point of contact throughout.
Do you charge hourly or fixed fees?
Fixed monthly or annual fees for recurring work (bookkeeping, tax compliance, AFS, payroll). Project-based fees for once-off work (SARS objections, restructures, deregistrations). You'll always have a written quote before we start — no surprise bills.
Which accounting software do you support?
Sage Business Cloud (preferred for full-service clients), Xero, QuickBooks Online and legacy desktop systems where needed. We can also migrate you off Pastel or other older systems if a cloud move is due.
Can you work with clients outside Gqeberha?
Yes — most of our work is fully digital. We serve clients across South Africa and a handful of international clients. Teams/Zoom calls, e-signed engagement letters, and cloud software mean physical location rarely matters.
Can you handle my late SARS submissions?
Yes. We regularly clean up clients who've fallen behind — outstanding VAT, PAYE, income tax or annual CIPC returns. The sooner we act, the smaller the penalty picture. We'll assess exposure, negotiate with SARS where appropriate, and bring you fully compliant.
How do I switch from my current accountant?
Much easier than most people think. We send your current accountant a standard professional handover letter requesting files and access. You don't need to have an awkward conversation — we handle the transition professionally.
