Exempt Micro Entitiy Letter

I am sure you are wondering what the requirements are for small businesses and BEE.

Small businesses that have a turnover of less than R10 000 000 only need to do this affidavit as below and have this signed by a commissioner of oath.

This is no longer a certificate issued by a professional institute and you don’t need to pay for this any longer

If your business turnover is higher than R10 000 000 then you will need to be accredited by a person registered with SANAS.
