Dear CEO, MD or Financial Head
You’ve outgrown your accountant, and deep down,
you know it.
Your business has grown, but your backend hasn’t.
You’re not scaling a company anymore…
you’re scaling a liability.
You’ve got clients, revenue, even a team,
but your financial systems are duct-taped together.
You’re still chasing invoices manually.
You’re guessing on cash flow.
You’re hoping SARS doesn’t dig too deep.
The harsh truth:
You couldn’t pass an audit tomorrow, and you know it.
One missed deadline. One red flag.
And suddenly, your growth turns into risk.
If that sounds like you, it’s time to get serious.
At Universal Consulting, we help growth-stage businesses clean up the chaos, and build systems that are audit-ready, investor-friendly, and future-proof.
We’re not just accountants.
We’re your strategic finance partners that are built for businesses that are ready to play bigger.

Frequently Asked
Questions
We address common queries, demystify intricacies, and
provide insights to guide you through our services.
What services does your accounting firm offer?
We provide a comprehensive range of accounting and financial services, including:
→ Financial accounting and reporting
→ Tax planning and compliance (local and international)
→ Payroll and HR compliance
→ Company registration and secretarial services
→ VAT and PAYE services
→ Cross-border advisory
→ Management reporting and CFO support
Our services are designed to meet the needs of both South African companies
and global businesses operating in or expanding into South Africa.
Do you offer the same services to international clients as you do to South
African clients?
Yes. We provide consistent, high-quality services to both South African and international companies. For global clients, we also offer guidance on local compliance, cross-border tax implications, and setting up South African operations.
Can you help international companies set up business in South Africa?
Absolutely. We assist foreign companies with:
→ Choosing the right business structure
→ Registering with the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC)
→ SARS tax registrations (Income Tax, VAT, PAYE)
→ Local compliance and reporting obligations
→ Ongoing accounting and payroll services
What experience do you have with cross-border taxation and compliance?
We have extensive experience helping businesses navigate double taxation agreements, transfer pricing, and international tax reporting. We ensure both local and global tax requirements are met efficiently.
Do you offer virtual or cloud-based accounting solutions?
Yes. We use leading cloud platforms like Xero, QuickBooks Online, and Sage to offer real-time access to financial data, whether you're based in South Africa or abroad.
What are your fees? Do they differ for international clients?
Our fees are based on the scope and complexity of the services required, not your location. We offer fixed-fee packages and customized solutions for both local and global clients. A free initial consultation helps us tailor a pricing plan that works for you.
How do we communicate and collaborate with your team if we are based
abroad?
We use secure communication tools such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, email, and client portals to stay connected. Our systems are designed for seamless remote collaboration, regardless of time zone.
